nick44 Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 So my house got broken into. The good thing is that we dont have much in there because we bought the house in Febuary when I was on R and R and have just been slowly moving stuff in on weekends when the wife isnt working. However her and my dad moved all my tools down last weekend. So I am on sears trying to rebuy all my tools and air compresser... any idea's on a cheaper place? Thanks!
Draenor Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Sear is probably the best place to buy from...Not all expensive, plus the lifetime warranty. Sucks to get robbed. Theives are one of the lowest lifeforms this world has. The bastards were watching the place and noticed that you wernt constantly there.
nick44 Posted April 30, 2009 Author Posted April 30, 2009 hey had to or were tipped off by the realtor or the one neighbors who know that I am gone and the wife only goes down on some weekends.

Wingnut Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Best place to buy tools? Craigslist. You can buy a Snap On box the size of a small island, packed with tools, for a fraction of the cost of new Craftsman. Craftsman is a bit harder to find on there for some reason...But when it's on there, it's reasonable. Matco and Mac are on there all the time as well. Any of the above, even though you bought them used, will be fully warrantied and insurable at their full value. That's what I'd do anyway. Sorry to hear about the break in man...That's one of crappiest feelings.
txab Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 hey had to or were tipped off by the realtor or the one neighbors who know that I am gone and the wife only goes down on some weekends. Wouldn't surprise me to find out it was one of your neighbors that did it. That happened to a buddy of mine that bought a house and was doing much like you, moving piece at a time. Got cleaned out one weekend. 6 months go by and he started seeing his stuff over at the neighbors. Lawn mower, yard tools, tool box. Guess who got busted? Neighbor was such a dumbass. Mysteriously while he was in jail his house was broken into.

nick44 Posted April 30, 2009 Author Posted April 30, 2009 I am so glad my wife wasnt home... I didnt find much on craigslist and I wont lie I wouldnt feel good about sending my wife to go check tools out at some dudes house who we dont know. But thanks for the advice!
Ranger Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 So where are you located? I got some decent air compressors I'd sell dirt cheap (nothing wrong with em, just got too many)...I'm in FL but I'm betting you're on the other side of the country haha.

Whatcha got? Yes, I too am across the country though.
Ranger Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 I have 4, but the ones we'd like to get rid of are a 22gal 2.0 HP Kobalt and a 26 Gal 2.6 (I THINK, will recheck when I get back in the shop) Husky...Both work fine just sucked for high pressure painting so I got a gas compressor that does the job.
Ranger Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Not shipping sorry, the sucker weighs about 200 lbs so shipping would be a lot more than what it's worth...I can get some quotes if you really want it but it'd be a wash when you can get the same unit for like 200 bucks local.
mr_bots Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 That really sucks. Maybe they'll try and rob someone else and get met by a 12ga.
