Thank you for sharing! I'm not sure why someone thumbed down this thread. Maybe it's because of the hackability of it?


Take care,

Yes, I guess it's all a matter of perspective on "deals." I view "hackable" as a negative, i.e. to me it is an unethical behavior even if it is not technically fraud or a crime. I'm sure I will get an "unhelpful" vote just because I said that.

I do enjoy buying lots of SlickDeals deals from this site including many from HD. And there are plenty of deals even without "hacking."

P.S. for this deal I did NOT give it a TU or a TD. I'll just be neutral.

Pretty good deal - although you can find this for $260/270 when they throw in the free tool instead of battery.

Not positive why but I would think it's because this "hackable" deal has been posted a dozen times by now, and it really isn't a hack at this point as it's been like this for months now

Deals like this need to be available on the first of every month so we can use our monthly Amex PayPal benefits.

Hey would you mind elaborating on these "monthly Amex PayPal benefits"?

You will need to have both the tool set and extra battery in your cart as different line items.

Both items will need to be purchased. I do store pickup for the toolkit and ship to home for the battery.

After you check out you will need to cancel the battery immediately. You will keep savings for tool kit.

Because this kit was hackable to $266 for most of Q4 and it was hackable to $240 a couple weeks ago.

can I just return the battery to store later and get refunded $105 for the battery?

I believe so. I have never done it that way, but if you keep your receipt then I'm guessing there shouldn't be an issue

Probably a TD because it's not that great of a deal

what zip code are people seeing original price $349? that price plus the hack would make this a deal
