Default Good sale price!

These power grips when I bought mine were 29.00 in woodcraft and on sale for 19.95......now Rockler has them for 16 and free shipping...this is a bargain and I use mine all the time....good set in my opinion....

Thanks Dave.
It's a good deal. I also found out there is a Rockler Store in Pittsburgh that I've driven by about 50 times.

Thanks HI-HO, I use Rockler for a lot of my tools. These look like a good buy and my set is on its way. I did not get free shipping though.

You didn't get the free shipping? The ad says "free shipping"? I will see if I see have it and put the home ad in here. Well at first it this site wouldn't let me post because it was too short, now it says I can't post because its too long? geez! ain't progress wunnerful?

Thanks for your effort HI-HO. I called and they told me they didn't have a promotion on free shipping going on now. Not a big thing , thanks, still a good deal.

I sent you a private message with the ad and the promotion code that gives you free shipping! Apparently the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing there?

Hey HI-HO, Got my Power Grip Tools today and they are sharp right out of the box. I think dollar for dollar it is the best tool buy I ever had. I tried them on the Poplar Canes that I am doing and cut very good. Thanks again.
