[BiddeldyBwah]

The main thing is don't rush into a decision.

So the FFX listing for the TECH-XL has just been updated again - I guess by a real person this time - to a new price of £205. Will be interesting to see if they actually ship out the 40-odd they sold at £105.

Update: just this minute got an email cancelling my order "due to a pricing error"!

One of the lads from work got the email cancelling it. I’m pretty sure that they have to sell it at that price.

Nah. 'Sorry, supplier couldn't get them, we will refund the order.' Common practice and legally sound.

Lots of drop shipping orders being cancelled at the moment due to lack of gear

Having looked at my finances I just can’t justify it. Not at the moment on Min Wage. The thing that seems all too common is people getting FREE bags and tools:

Sadly that is the case with most things.
When you can actually afford to be replacing things frequently you have the extra cash to buy the expensive stuff that lasts and saves you money.

Tried my Magnusson Trolley System on a job. I’ve decided that I will need a Main Bag. As the Boxes are good but I’m just using it for Storage. The Facom 14” Tote is great for Servicing but it’s too small for a Main Bag.

Have you tried a bucket ?

I did, Plumbers ended up using it on site.

only because they were to lazy to plumb in the toilet.

 

[Dustydazzler]

In all seriousness , I used a bucket quite a lot when I only needed a handful of tools on the job. I would chuck the tools in a bucket and take that onto site. No need to lug my great big stanley box about.

Likewise one of those plastic cleaners caddy boxes is handy if you only need to take 3 or 4 screwdrivers and side cutters to do a quick job.

Trouble I find with big boxes / bags is you fill them up with all sorts of tools and they get too heavy and lugging them about is a pain

Nope.....legally its a "Invitation to tender" .They dont have to accept payment

Finally bought something after finding this online, for a really good price. The material is supposed to be really durable:

Thats impressive, I wish I could afford one. Unlike some YouTubers who just get them sent to them for free. Which boils my ----.
