Dan - TIA Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 What's up everyone. So we have had some order issues recently with a retailer that we have worked with in the past. I have no doubt that the retailer will take care of the crew and fix their issues. This got me thinking, we need an official TIA retailer, where you in the forum get a special discount for being a forum member. Tell me what you guys want to see from a retailer, like 10% off and free shipping? Also what retailers do you recommend? Once we have an idea of what we want I can approach the retailers and offer them sponsorship on the forum for the discount. We will even approach Home Depot. You guys are always getting a steady stream of new tools who should we get on-board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kruton Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Not sure who everybody else uses. I have had good luck with Toolbarn. 10% and free shipping would be great!Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMack37 Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Any discount plus free shipping. No minimum for free shipping is the biggie for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 15% off and Free Shipping on orders over say 25 dollars would be awesome. HD you can get pretty much 10% off anytime you just have to ask in their chat and they will give you a code. The other cool thing is if your near a Mendards HD and Lowes will match Mernards 11% off rebate when its going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbw55 Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 How about 10% off plus free shipping on all orders including 10 % off items on sale (marked down) with free shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 I would Iike100% off but that probably won't happen free shipping and 10% or 15% would be nice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WigWagWorkshop Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Yup - Free Shipping on ANY order, with prices that are not jacked up to cover the cost of the "Free" shipping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Anyone can get 10% off at Home Depot and ship to store for free. Want my business? 15% is the minimum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comp56 Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 free shipping is a huge discount on it's own..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbw55 Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 While 15% would be nice that's most likely a stretch for the retailers unless they get better margins and that is most likely not going to happen. Along with getting a discount which is always nice, there also is the customer service end of things..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comp56 Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 my guess it would not work to well with a big chain, from my experience I can go to one store get a deal and go to another location and they tell me to take a hike.... plus it would be different if all of our purchases were going to be in or at 1 store. the little ol home depot I have here would say nice try..... they pull teeth to not price match.....

MikeyB Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 15% off plus free shipping sounds like a good deal. And how about better deals on Reconconditioned Tools? I have had good luck with Tool Barn in the past, and I used to order from Tool King but I don't think they are around anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Well looks like we got a new member from my favorite tool store so I'm thinking the call should be made Dan! Besides I've their stickers all over the place and a bunch of Tool Nut t shirts!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeldfabNeil Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Sounds like a great plan. Just free shipping would be good, anything else is even better. I personally would like to see msc industrial as a retailer but I know that's probably not a good fit for everyone. It would have to be more of a general tool store.
