does anyone know where I can buy wholesale name brand hand and power tools for resale.?

Answer 1

You can google it but all you will get is paid websites that charge you fees to get a list of companies. I have checked out several of them and very few have actual wholesale pricing worth dealing with. (i.e. you can buy the very same thing on ebay or at walmart for the same or less) For true wholesale pricing you need to establish yourself as a dealer, with resale number, etc. and apply to the manufacturers yourself. Otherwise you are paying middlemen prices.

You don't indicate if you are trying to sell on ebay or open a retail store or something! I actually broker used equipment and subscribe to several large auction houses that handle equipment around the country. There is a large quantity of surplus equipment in the north so when the right auction comes along, I am usually able to get needed equipment for pennies on the dollar then sell it locally without ever touching it.

It is high dollar stuff and definitely worth my efforts to fool with. You have to know your industry otherwise you will lose your shirt!

Answer 2

I've been a DeWalt fan for almost 20 years. The 12V drill/driver from 1994 still has the original batteries. The 18V 5 1/4" circ saw from 5 years ago already needed new batteries. The key is to use cordless tools quite often. When they sit without being used the batteries don't seem to hold a charge for long, maybe that's why the drill has lasted 17 years. If you buy from the big box stores the tool is not the same. Most of them are speced out with plastic gears & parts, get them from a tool store, lumber yard etc.
