Harbor Freight Tools

Harbor Freight Tools DO NOT EVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY!!! Internet

5th of Jul, 2011 by User404482

Be warned: Never buy anything from Harbor Freight Tools!!! I just purchased their jig saw online. The price was unbelievable, and now I know why. It didn't come with a battery or charger! So when the item arrived, I lost an entire day and had to purchase a replacement somewhere else just to finish the job. No here is where it gets interesting. When I talked with a supervisor with my complaint-- namely that no where on their ad is mentioned that the cordless saw does not come with a battery or charger and that the item photo clearly shows the saw WITH the battery attached, she openly lied and stated that the advertisement stated that it didn't come with a battery, that the battery and charger are sold separately. She lied through her teeth... no where on the ad was this listed. Never in my entire life have I ever seen a cordless power tool that didn't come with a battery and charger, until now. Which leads me to the following conclusion: The reason that Harbor Freight Tools is so cheap is that many of the items don't have what is advertised on their website!!! When I asked what the price of this missing battery and charger would be, IT COST AS MUCH AS THE ENTIRE SAW ITSELF!!! This is what is commonly called in the business, "False Advertising," and is punishable by law. Harbor Freight Tools is, in short, a fraud and a scam of the highest order. All of the supervisor's of Harbor Freight Tools are outsourced Indian slaves with phony American names like,
"John Smith" and "Heath Scott" or the insidious moron that I talked to, "Adam Swift." When I pointed out his false advertisement, he became agitated and refused my request to send me the battery without cost, as advertised. When he refused, I told him that Harbor Freight Tools would shortly be contacted by the Department of Consumer Affairs, which I assure you they will.
