This site has really dropped in quality price wise. The few yard tools I have been looking at for Ryobi haven't been included in sales for 8+ months and tools from rigid have vanished from the site

$299 at Direct Tools or $469 at Home Depot. Where's the joke?

It's a leaf blower/vacuum with a harness, 40v charger, and two 4ah 40v batteries.

A 2-pack of those batteries at Home Depot costs as much as the whole kit at Direct Tools.

Thanks. Nabbed a couple 2-bay intelligent chargers for ~$45. Yes, they've been a couple dollars cheaper previously, but free shipping tipped the scales for me. A lot of stuff is the same price at Home Depot, so have to search and evaluate. Thanks again.

It was good times in 2021, I remember I would go pick up $10 power drills and $15 impact drivers at the DTO store during their 50% off sales. I haven't seen prices that low for that last few years. I've been having much better luck going through FB marketplace the last few months.

Quote from Tyross :
Their point is, that is costs the manufacturer like $40 or less the make, narket, and sell the item.
What halfway decent brand do you suggest that sells something comparable with 2 4ah batteries for anywhere near $40? Or for that matter, any less than the $300 of this deal?

Any of the electric pressure washer deals beat the green works from Costco? https://www.costco.com/ProductDis...er=1785879

Sorry to say DTO never really came back to the way it was pre 2020. Most of the "sale" prices are just what they want the retail price to be. You used to be able toget some decent stuff at good to great prices. Those days seem to be gone.

Looks to me like maybe the prices on most items were raised to offset the free shipping.

None of the vortex brushes are on sale, they cost the same as HD. Lame.

The only problem is the owner of DTO is the owner of Ryobi, Milwaukee, etc, etc, etc.
Among others, they also own Hart brand and I have a lot of their outdoor tools and I find them to be good quality. The weed eater and hedge trimmer (20v versions) have lasted a few years so far and still kicking! Just bought a 40v edger (from ollies) and so far I am pleased!!

Quote from Tri1914 :
I heard rumors that Homedepot found out about these guys selling for half price by marking stuff "factory blemished". HD force Ryobi and Ridgid to choose between them
I highly doubt HD hasn't known about this from the beginning. Direct Tools is the manufacturer of Ridgid and Ryobi tools. They've always sold their excess production that HD didn't buy as blemished. It's more likely that the manufacturer has just reduced their production numbers due to the economy. Just about every industry, except for healthcare, has massively cut their production and labor force.

Factory Reconditioned = gotten things still with sawdust on them. They're not "reconditioned", they're "used".

Yeah, once some of the Hart brand stuff came out looking exactly like the Ryobi but with different batteries and Voltages, I knew the score. Lol. Massive multinational conglomerates own everything.

Just to make sure you are aware of this is just the adaptor to wash the walkway. By no mean this is pressure washer itself.
Yes, thanks. I have a Ryobi electric pressure washer already.
