Quote from Erik2393 :
So I literally just bought this on Sunday on the last deal with 40% off ($209) and free shipping but would still be about a $40 difference

Does anyone know if DTO honors a price match?
No, I contacted them once about similar price drop and they refused, all sales are final, no adjustments. Like other's posted, return (and you pay return shipping) and re-buy is the only option, and that's actually what their customer service suggested.

I've had good experiences with them. I've bought referbs and "factory blemished" and everything I got works perfectly and came looking new or like new. Shipping is a little slow sometimes but other than that nothing to complain about.

I've bought a few things from them. One being a Ryobi shop vac which was factory blemished and DOA. customer service was an absolute nightmare and I ended up eating it.

Seeing the price of this Ridgid battery framing nailer hopefully sets a precedent that we'll see just as good or better DTO deals on the Ryobi framing nailers.

Probably going to take a while since the Ryobi versions are even available at retail yet…

This has me wondering if I can find a Ryobi battery adapter to fit this thing. I've got a deck to build and don't have time to wait for the Ryobi version to hit DTO.

Quote from bme43713 :
I just called them and had to cancel and reorder
Stay on top of the cancellation and make sure you get a confirmation from them. I only have experience canceling 1 order with DTO. Cancel (after late night order) and reorder, similar to what you're doing here. The new (re)order shipped within a few days. The cancelled order remained in the "processing" state for two weeks....then it shipped and I had to ship it back to them to get the credit for the canceled order. Thankfully, they paid the return shipping since they had logged the cancellation request in their system 2 weeks prior, but it was just a big inconvenience (for me) and not worth the savings in the end. DTO did the right thing, so no complaints about how they handled it.

If you are on the Milwaukee battery platform, you can get this and use the converter from Amazon. TTI never puts the Milwaukee stuff on the Direct Tools site, though they carry in my local DTO store. The Milwaukee nailer and the Rigid are like clones.

LOOKING FOR A BAG...?

If you are looking for a bag I got this one for my Rigid 30 Degree nailer it fit nicely. I also picked up the Rigid 21 Degree and it's a tight fir, but it will zip all the way. There are not a lot bags that will hold something this size in the nailer world.

So much want, but holding out for Ryobi's entry.

And I have a deck to build within the next 60 days.

I'm waiting for the Ryobi version. Hopefully it'll pop up soon. I got a 93 foot fence to build this summer.
