Good price, but was $5 less in March.

If you're willing to call 3 times and physically mail in your receipts. Be ready for the hassle, but eventually you can get the LSA.

Yeah this is literally the way. I finally got my LSA approved yesterday on this sander after calling them twice. Fortunately, by calling Ridgid I didn't have to physically mail in the receipt, but they definitely don't make easy.

I thought Ridgid factory blemished tools from Direct Tools Outlet qualified for the lifetime LSA. However, this does specify a 3 year warranty while it would be the lifetime LSA if purchased new at Home Depot (https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGI.../300716202)

I am lucky, I just make a screen shot of my DTO order, and they accept it.

It does but the process isn't as easy as buying tools from Home Depot.

Every new (blemished, not refurbished) Ridgid tool from this vendor comes with a 3-year warranty in addition to the LSA that you need to register for. https://www.directtoolsoutlet.com...ty-program

"Covered by a 3-Year Limited Warranty. Qualifying products are eligible for LSA when registered with RIDGID within 90 days of purchase."

And no, you don't need to physically mail anything in. Just upload your receipt on the registration page and if it doesn't automatically go through then send them an email or chat to request a review and it'll go through no problem.

As others are saying, this is eligible for LSA, but now ridgid requires you to jump through some hoops. They used to let you just upload a picture of the receipt to their site and they would give you LSA. Then you had to upload the receipt and then chat with a representative to process the LSA. Now you're supposed to mail your receipt to then, but if you call they will still process it for you.

blemished did/do qualify for LSA but the reconditioned do NOT. as others have said, you will have to work for the LSA for some reason and follow up.
