Buying thru these outlets would ensure a fair price for any tool that is corded. Box loads of power tools are sold for less than $ 2.00 each at auction At this price brand name does not matter. When purchasing cordless tools I always look for the Makita or DeWalt brands because of the power to battery life ratio and the availability of parts or batteries in the future. I do not feel guilty paying for new cordless tools when they are on sale
For hand tools the focus should be on lifetime warranties. Craftsman, Masterforce, and several others offer a life time warranty.
The recommendation that is offered is to go to auctions first followed by pawn shops. For cordless tools, invest in the brand names. This advice comes from someone whose family will sell all my tools for $ 2.00 a box load to bury.
lol sell all ur tools for 2$ a load thats terrible and funny to=).
