# Nice.
I bought a nice Makita drill last weekend for some projects I have around the house. Could've saved myself half the money and got something cheaper, but meh.

# buying cheap tools is not saving money.
It's false economy as you replace them every 18 months.
If you can afford DeWalt then you buy that, failing that it's Makita, if you really are a pauper then Ryobi but anything else is just tat to tempt diyers.

# Well I feel a bit better now.
I'm going to demolish my asbestos roofed garage this weekend. Don't really need my drill for that :(

# Woah. Really tapped into a vein of expertise here...
Is this a professional interest, perchance?

# agreed - buy cheap - pay twice
with makita you have made a good choice.

If anyone is interested I could bring in a 40ft container of b3ta badged drills - assuming pre-orders.

14.4v and 2 batts - I would pay around $14 per sku - much deal so you will buy at £49.99 ex vat.

deal - yes?

# It does seem that power tools are popular with b3tans...
not sure you'd shift a whole container though.

# yes - point taken - cheers
20ft container then but end user price just rose to £57.31 ex vat

deal?
