Note that when Direct Tools has these % off everything sales, the prices revert to the original price of the item. In other words, the 20% doesn't stack with previously discounted prices.

This is a great deal if the tool you're looking for doesn't typically go on sale, however many of their items are routinely on sale for more than 20% off - so it pays to watch (or search slickdeals) to know if the item you are looking at is actually a good deal with this sale or not.

Shipping is $7 flat rate. Whether you get one item or ten, shipping will only be $7.
There are plenty of tools that are just "ok" on price right now. But I believe in your specific case you were looking at the "factory reconditioned" tool (which is now on sale for $31.99) but now are looking at the "factory blemished" tool at the $47.99 price you mentioned.

This is the link to the factory reconditioned tool at $31.99: https://www.directtoolsoutlet.com...t/p/ZRP721
Ryobi P721 was $37.99 prior to the sale. Now it's listed "on sale" for $47.99.

After some spotty price checking, it seems like the 20% off is just a trick, because all popular items had their price go up 20%, most of which are even out of stock.

So forget it.

Quote from whodiini :
I have bought several items from direct tools. The blemished items are in new condition and I have had good success with those. I purchased one factory refurb item (finish nailer) and used it about a month later after I received it. Found out it could not drive a 2 1/2" nail into the wood without the head sticking out, even with max pressure. Called them and found out that they only accept returns within 30 days, so now I need to take it to a Ryobi repair to get it fixed. Not worth the hassle and time to get something not working to save just a few bucks, so I will stick to only the blemished from now on.

I used to work at a place that repaired all their nailers in house. It's way easier than you would think. I don't know what model you have, but I found this on YouTube that might help https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sYp9nKcwODM
Obviously it's not worth the hassle of saving a couple bucks. But if you already have the tool, repairing it is cheaper than buying another one. As long as you're comfortable with your tinkering ability.

So stupid question. Is it worth waiting for a sale on a low stock item or should I just buy it and say it isn't worth the hassle?
