My May 5th order is scheduled to arrive Fedex today. Have you checked the status of your order. They are getting slower all the time. Agree that $13.99 is a lot over the top for shipping.

Edit: BTW I got a refurb 18V battery in one of the kits. It lasted 1 charge cycle, so check them if you get a refurb battery. Maybe run thru a few charge-discharge cycles. I called customer support and replaced it no problem. Just a heads up that their "refurb" may be a restore and not necessarily new parts.

Wish they would finish shipping out their orders from the 40% off sale before having another big sale

When I placed my order during the last sale it said it could take as long as 8 days to get it out but it looks like they're having serious issues getting some of the orders out the door. I'm starting to wonder if they oversold some of their stock.

Isn't this the same outfit that listed a Rigid 6" jointer for $430 shipped, but then canceled all orders?

Sounds like you were unlucky. I got my May 5th order yesterday and it had to ship all the way across the country. They did send a couple emails saying orders would be delayed and this last one was the longest I've ever had to wait.

The "outfit" is owned by TTI, which manufactures or licences all the tools they sell. They are the legit factory outlet for these tools.

yet again... another DTO post where anything even mildly critical of the company gets thumbed down.

ive never seen a company fluxtuate prices and shipping and sale % so much. its borderline impossible to keep up with what is actually a good price, and what is the normal price. non stop sales, and blowouts and iNveNtOrY ClEaNoUtS!!!!!!!!

like... come on. just keep things the same price and offer 10-15% sales on occasion, rather than the regular prices being 20% off a price that something has never actually been, and then 40% off sales based off of a now inflated price.

" finish nails ranging from 3/4 in. to 2-1/2 in. long. 16 gauge."
That's a good range of nails, right? Is 16 gauge the standard , what are the uses of 16 gauge.

Is it pretty good for most simple jobs around the house. I've never owned one but have seen (and used a few times) the air compressor ones .

I just received my May 5th order this morning. All factory blems: Ryobi band saw, drill press, router table, and Evercharge hand vac. Oh, and of course the electrostatic sprayer. Boxes are all retail packaging and well battered in the shipping process. Haven't opened any of them yet, so I don't know about any shipping damage, but I don't expect any issues.

Take lots of pictures (before, during, and after opening it). DTO is notorious for under-packaging stuff they ship and having some pictures makes the exchange process easier.

Just like harbor freight. And they got sued about stating high reference prices that never existed

You are better of with home Depot. Just you, and those like you. For anyone else, you should comparison shop and buy when it's a good price for value, or better, regardless if it's a 'sale'.

If you go back 3 years it was not this bad, but everyone will say it was. This is just what happens when you keep inflation down forever and a major unexpected market change occurs. I mean just look at the deals being sold out so quick even when they are not that good. They either don't have the inventory, or the demand is blowing it all out at these 'terrible misleading prices'. Meanwhile in my area people want to sell used tools for more than HD brand new lol. So yeah, I don't get mad when businesses are competing with each other, because I do remember when much crappier tools were much higher in price, but I'm showing my age here.
