I go in for a [$30 polisher](http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=92623)and then spend $398.

:spank:

oh, and they were out of stock on the polisher.

update with list:

[quote=“Nikuk”"]

lol…

I needed to buy alot of the basics, once in a while stuff.

I don’t like HF for anything with more then a couple moving parts, or any thing that wil see regular heavy usage…

that being said:

Socket & Wrench organizers (20)

Tap & die set (33)

50’ AIR HOSE 7 REEL (30)

polisher (40)

chop saw (75)

Impact sockets (60)

Regulater (20)

Brake pump kit (25)

welding gloves (10)

pulley puller set (15)

bit driver set (13)

leak down tester (26)

And you’re all overlooking the greatest return policy evaR: buy new, put old one in new box, return with new reciept.

How the F do you spend 398 at HF???  
HF is ok for odd-ball tools that you might use once or twice, but come on you dont actually buy stuff to use on a regular bassis
