Let a professional scavenger tell you whats up: Broken sledgehammer is a fine piece of hardwood to make other hammer handles from, the head can have a new handle put on, the not broken rake head can go on the handle from the broken rake, and the broken caulking gun can be used to confuse and infuriate your neighbor who asks to borrow a caulking gun!

At the return counter, when an item is scanned it asks if the merchandise is re-sellable. If no is selected it prints out a faulty return slip. A lot of the times, it's someone not wanting to deal with an open package.most of the time the "faulty items" are fine.

I think they had a large pile of merchandise on the floor, and while putting the items in boxes, they had a box set aside where they tossed the obvious junk and trash, but afterwards, they decided to put the trash box up on the auction site knowing that some jackass will probably buy it. That’s where you came into the picture John. On the bright, it was good entertainment for us, and that my friend is priceless.

So often things would get past costumer service and my friends in receiving and I would get a good laugh. “They know this should have had a battery right?” or a lot of times they’d buy a new thing and bring their old one an hour later in the new box saying “it doesn’t work.” The cashiers wouldn’t check that the numbers matched on the box to the drill.

You need to walk around Lowes/Depot and look up. They'll bury the last of something on the very top shelf. The computer algorithm with continue to discount the item. Best score I got was a Kobalt rolling tool chest. $700 retail for $50. I saw it sitting on the top shelf. Ran the item number. Score! Another trick is use their website. I found 5/4 x 10 cedar for $5 each at one Lowe's 30 minutes away. I couldn't get there fast enough. The ones that they had on the shelf were $25 each, but a different item number. I walked around looking up for them and finally found them in the flooring department on the back wall. I bought the whole pallet. $500 vs $2500. That's shopping!

It had more torque, lasted twice as long as dimwhat. The best thing was it was also half the weight. So anything with Metabo on it buy it. I think the only tools that have parity is Milwaukee.

Ive seen photos where the return clerk didnt check and accepted a big dewalt power tool combo box that just had a few bricks in it to give it some weight

RTM products typically have something wrong with them to the point that we will not resell it or try to fix it. It also seems like some products that should have been trashed were thrown in. Sorry about the luck on this one.

That's how it is here where I live too. About a year ago I went to home depot to buy some 5/8 inch thick drywall sheets and there weren't any labels or anything indicating what the sizes of any of the sheets were so I asked an employee who was in that isle. My friend, who drove me, and the employee both pointed me to the ones they thought was the size I was looking for. I got all the way home which is a 30 minute drive from home depot just to find out that it was not the size I needed but what really made it worse is that I actually took a tape measure with me to the store and had it with me in my bag but didn't pull it out and use the darn thing when I was at the store. It's a good thing drywall is really cheap priced. So I just kept them. A month later I went to Lowe's for the drywall I needed and I took my tape measure and made absolutely certain I was buying the correct size before I got to the checkout line.

6:14, seeing that little heater made me chuckle a bit. I'm a cashier at Lowes and during this time of year, when we get assigned to the outside garden register, they have one of those heaters under the register to try and keep you warm. It works... okay. Not as good as what they had last year. They had the heater and quite literally built a wooden booth around each outside register with a sliding glass window for when customers came up so you could scan. Customer leaves, just close it again to keep the cold out. This year, they built the booth again... kind of. They built half of it. The other half is no longer the door, it's a sliding curtain but the curtain is plastic? It works okay... it doesn't reach the bottom though so your feet still get cold and there's not enough room to try and lift them up.

I bought a Simpson pressure washer that had been returned from Lowe’s. The sticker said fixed and useable. I get home connect it and zero pressure from the hose. It cranked great btw. Took it back and Lowe’s said call company for warranty work. I did, it was fixed and works great now.

If you want to get rid of the power washer I would really like to have it, I'm starting a detailing business and I don't have a lot of money, so I definitely could use it!

You should take a crate and repurpose it in a build. Use some of the tools to build it and other parts in a build. Kind of like the show Assembly Required.

Amazon returns pallet, I think they can be bought in "themes", so you can specify a "tools" pallet.

Find a company that wholesales entire trailers. You can get $4000 units full of lawn and garden or tools or household. Even when you are done, you still have the traler.

What's left? Menards, and I think some return pallet places divide the more tool stuff for Walmart.

Even if it says faulty still try it as long as it isnt obviously dangerous because alot of people say that just because they think itll make it easier to return

Not even joking. I'm low-key considering buying one of these to get myself started on building an array of tools/supplies. It might end up way better to just buy used piece meal, but that's less fun and also potentially more costly. Though I'd never buy used for most serious equipment where it really counted

Kobalt a big let-down? Oh yeah, I learned the same thing awhile ago. In-house Lowes brand, not worth it. (Except for the tape measure. Literally the only quality Kobalt product I've ever used.)

You can reset the batteries by putting a current regulated voltage about 75 to 80% of the rated pack volts on the output terminals then charging as normal.

Did you try to see if the kobalt battery would fit the drill? Send a friend to return the items. You could reweld the rake or put the good head on it and the hammer head will go on another handle. You didn't even test the stapler. It could work. I mean they could have just not used the right staples or something.
