I immediately refunded him the $200 and added $50 to the "refunded-refund" for his time and trouble. Then I contacted him and explained what had happened. He seems much happier now, and I am as well.

The heads and handles are mainly what keeps me in SO's pocket. I really like the hard handles and they've stood up to some really stupid abuse. Ratchets and flank drive wrenches are all I'll ever buy. Their screwdrivers are pretty awesome as well, but you can buy the Williams brand and have the same tool with a different name. Most other things I go with different manufacturers. |
