Does anyone know of a good source of cheap reconditioned tools, particularly air compressors, on the web?

Posted on November 29th, 2009 by admin


Few things are as sure to me in life as there are no good, cheap tools or equipment. Tool Crib of the North sells factory reconditioned equipment from manufacturers like DeWalt, Porter-Cable and others. These sell for about 80% of the price of a new one and carry a new warranty. There are other sources or reconditioned equipment, you could try local factory service centers or Googe reconditioned compressors, but you will get what you pay for.

    I agree with Tool Crib. Also, try http://www.tool-mall.com/air-compressors.htm. Haven’t used them, but they have what you’re looking for.

    At ‘Amazon’ you can buy reconditioned tools; such as, air compressors. These are from the company directly in most cases. However, I’ll agree that you will get what you pay for. With an air compressor, such as, some of the Makita or Porter Gable models you may find it was reconditioned for a reason. When looking over there i rely heavily on ‘Feedback’ if a product has no feedback then i pass it by. If the feedback over all is not a good sounding voice from the people who purchased this item – then i pass it by.
    Do not purchase out of ‘desire to have it’ or ‘because it is a deal you cannot pass by.’ There is a good chance you will learn the deal of the day is not such a deal afterall.

    Many items at Amazon, even on the ‘NEW’ items do have ‘Free Shipping.’ This is why I get my tools there – not all items qualify all the time though – but I save a bit where I can.
