Done what they said

The blades I ordered were sharp & heavy duty as described & they arrived in the expected timeframe.
A good experience from a first time user.

No response on chat or email

I was provided with a discount code on my invoice to receive 10% off my next order by inputting the code"THANKS"
The code did not work on their website, I contacted them by their online chat facility but never received a reply although I tried numerous times, I also sent an email which was never replied to either.
I placed an order anyway as the price was very good which arrived promptly.
The invoice with this order still had the offer of 10% off next order using the same discount code "THANKS". What is the point of quoting a discount code that does not work & also having a chat facility & email address that nobody responds to?

Verder little for a lot of money

i thought to buy a new closing flap for my trash can. unfortunately i received for a lot of money a small plastic part that i could glue to the old one. at least i think so, because there was no description. also paid customs clearance costs.

I bought a specialist tool for a particular job ,this tool was listed all over the net for a whole range of prices ,Tool buyer were the best price by far I was sceptical because the difference in price for the same unit was over £100 pounds to the most expensive supplier so was expecting very little but the unit turned up super quick and was good quality and did the job perfectly ,In fact I couldn't have done the job with out it .Tool in question was a crankshaft holding tool for a Ford
Transit .Well done Toolbuyer I will be back

Good tools for the price

Effective tools that worked straight out of the packaging (no sharpening required), although one wooden handle benefited from a bit of extra sanding.
