That sale is done, but he is a regular seller.
That seller doesn't seen to sell the wheels to fit the grinders being discussed here. I just took a quick look so maybe I missed it. He certainly has a good selling history with a 99.7% rating with over 30K in sales.

Here is a good one I go to order the grinder from ENCO today at their sale price of $249.00 plus use their promo code grandslam for an additional 15% off and they tell me that it is too large to ship because of their packaging, I told them I want it shipped FEDEX ground and they tell me they can't because of their contract with the brown boys. I would like one as this price is $100.00 less than "I can buy it from MSD who tell me I should buy the one from ENCO as they can't come close to matching the price. ANYWAY for the next 10 days from ENCO this is available at $249.00 less 15% using promo GRANDSLAM. tom

Tom,
I went through the motions of ordering one from Enco using the "GRANDSLAM" code and the price was $212.46 but shipping is by truck which added another $79 for a total of $291.46. I sure am glad I got the HF version when I did.

I dunno if their "one shipper" contracts help us or not but if I was in business in the U.S. of A. I wouldn't bend over backwards for the 7+/- possible customers up here in Canukistan.
Hey when Harper buys the the U.S. of A. then we'll be able to DEAL!

That's funny because MSC owns Enco (along with J&L).
I often get items that I order from Enco shipped to me from the MSC warehouse in an MSC labeled box. It threw me a couple of times because it even shows up as MSC on my credit card statement!

It's evil the way the mind works (or doesn't) at times.
I see now that you wrote MSD and not MSC.
Sorry Tom. Different companies most likely. But for all I know, MSC may own them as well!

Bit the bullet today and ordered $212.00 using the promo but it will cost me another $130. freight + brokerage. tom
RE: Carbide Grinder - stevec - 09-25-2012
Tom, ole bud, I feel for ya and myself too. I tears me to have to pay more than half again for shipping and gumint rip offs.
