LingLing Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Hi all. I'm after a few hundred dollars to one thounsand worth of tool sets (including big socket sets that go up to 32mm or more). i.e, the ones come with a tool box and draws. Any retailers/wholsellers around can do me a good deal? Any brand will do as long as they got lifetime warrenteen. I'm in CHCH, but shipping is ok. And Just found out today: Power built got a promotion at the moment. I got a good offer today for the CC009 set(big box,spaners+sockets+etc) + bike(at least $200 worth) from a retailer. I think All Retailers(Repco and others) get their Powerbuilt tools from Alltrade(wholesaler, CHCH), I went there today and They Told me They can't sell me anything. Any tool shop managers/owners here can hook me up? I can pay cash(helps with GST or not?) Also I can pay small amount of cash to you personally if you can get me a really good deal. Cheers Regards Andy 027 566 9761, andyling157@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My name is Russell Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 One trick i learnt is that if you go to say powerbuilts website and find out who the suppliers are NZ you may be able contact them n try purchase directly from them via a bit of haggling and bypass the holesalers markup. Might be worth looking into? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatestben Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Most wholesalers like the amount of money retailers make them so don't tend to give you the mad discount. I'd give you a discount on sweet sweet tools being a pleb at repco that happens to have a managers pin but I'm not gonna cos I don't know you from a bar of soap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Powerbuilt are pretty average. I have a big combination spanner set in imperial by them, and they are never gonna brake, but their socket set I have is shithouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
