[@thehonestman26]

As a long-time Costco employee in the U.S., I'd just like to mention that the items online are often a little more expensive than they are in the store because they're including the shipping charge. Not sure it's the same there, but I assume it is.

[@melvinphillips786]

It is, but we have a little more than the shipping cost added. Generally on an item that may be £120 in store, we can pay as much as £165 online, Costco in the UK like to rip its customers off whenever they can. Our membership is also now extortionately high, Executive membership this year went up to over £70.

[@thehonestman26]

@@melvinphillips786 That's interesting on the shipping. I wonder the reason. With regards to the Executive Membership, 70 pounds is equal to roughly 88 dollars here, and our Executive membership has been $120 for many years at this point and rumored to go higher, so it's much more expensive here. I can't speak to how it works in other countries, but just to let you know from someone who has worked there much longer than expected, Costco has always been a solid company where reputation is everything to them, and one thing you can count on is that they are never looking for ways to rip you off. Someone might beat them on a price from time to time, usually because they are selling it below their cost, but Costco has never been known for trying to take advantage of its members, one of the reasons people feel comfortable shopping there. When most companies have an item to sell, they wonder, How much can we sell this for? Costco's philosophy has always been, How can we sell this for less? And trust me I'm not trying to stick up for Costco because I work there. I've been there almost 30 years, and I've always hated working retail. This is not the career path I expected to take in life, but I have to be honest about them at the same time. I know from being in management there long enough that I have sat in countless meetings where they talk about assuring they maintain high standards and to never let that change. They are well aware of many large corporations who seemed to big to fail that ended up falling one day to their death anyways, and they work exceedingly hard to make sure they won't be the next one. Just wanted to give you a brief look inside what goes on behind closed doors.

[@jeepsaround]

@@melvinphillips786 $45 upcharge for shipping here is not out of the question. Shipping is expensive here. I bought a $50 Hoodie on sale (not from Costco) which didn't fit and had to pay $20 return shipping and place a new order off sale, that is total B.S. I see people on ebay selling an item with free shipping for $6 but my shipping cost on the same item is $6 minimum!! Last year I tried to sell a Cadillac sedan rear seat bottom, back, and headrests 48in x 24in x 20in, 78lbs and the cheapest discounted rate I could get for 1200 mile delivery was $320. Dividing it into two lighter and slightly smaller packages raised the price substantially.

I am a newish member to the channel and I am loving the different ways you organize the tool sets.

[@ShadowFoam]

Welcome aboard, is there anything you’d like to see me tackle specifically?

[@seen48]

Metabo power tools are the top of the line / PRO. That set is top shelf for sure. They do have some lower end tools for the bulk of customers that don’t want to pay high prices for tools. I think those lower quality / priced tools also fit well for a contractor who just needs a tool on a rare occasion. Great video. My drill choice would be the DeWalt. Smaller than the Stanley one, all heavy duty features. Durable for outdoor use / building.

[@ShadowFoam]

Thanks for the info!

[@richh6790]

Definitely agree about the parking space size at Costco stores!!

[@gf2e]

Costco on your side of the pond has much nicer tools than we get. If you’re ever visiting the US and want a challenge…I’ve got a 35’ RV with way too many tools that I need to organize. I’ve got maybe 6 or so Ridgid storage toolboxes, four of the half size Packout bins, 6 mini Systainers, and a few Makita MakPacs. I’ve got a ferrule crimper, closed pin Deutsch crjmper, Anderson PowerPole crimper, Pex plumbing crimper. Couple 3/8” impacts. Lots of different long reach pliers so I can reach into the RV engine. Perhaps I do have too many tools, but we travel for long distances and work on projects on the road. We end up doing things like switching from 12v to 48v battery during trips. If you do end up visiting the US or Canada, I’m happy to drive to wherever you are.

[@gf2e]

Oh: we also have crafting supplies like hand sewing, painting, crochet and knitting, and a lot of pens. Fountain pens, bottled ink, notebooks, and a drawer full of various dog things. And about 40 spice jars and packets.

[@ShadowFoam]

Haha that does sound a challenge! Let me know in the future when I announce my US ideas

[@efenili]

My Costco here in US does not have any power tools, lol. I'd be lucky to find a wrench set or something, crazy how much more you had in your tools section.

Your Costco has a lot more tooling than mine. Also best for individuals to standardize on one battery, though there are some converters available.

Very lucky with my local Costco although I do want to compare it against one in the US

[@garrydiggins3181]

When you tighten the drillbit up in the drill, once it’s tight, move the chuck back a little bit. It will click and lock so it will stop the Chuck from undo itself when using

[@ShadowFoam]

Thanks for the tip! 👍

[@paulwild6246]

Came on here to see if anybody had mentioned this little known pro tip for locking the chucks , looks like I was beaten to it. Not all drills etc do this only the quality ones. As stated once tight turn the chuck back the opposite direction a few degrees you will feel it lock

[@ginjagold7345]

did you lock the chuck on the dewalt drill or have they removed that feature with the newer models?

[@MARYBHY-]

That Stanley Fatmax Drill looks good for the money, i actually use Worx tools as the batteries are interchangeable with my diy tools, garden tools, and pressure washer would love to see a video making a shadow foam storage box with some Worx items 😀

[@EspenShampoo25]

20v and 18v are indeed the same. Its all about definition. 20v is the batterys voltage when fully charged without a load connected to it. 18v is the voltage measured on the terminals when it has a load connected. This however has led to a great deal of confusion thoughout the years and people have bought into the idea and thought one battery is superior to another. This is one of the reasons bosch rebranded their 10,8v line to 12v. The batteries are the same but people thpught they where inferior to other 12v batteries

[@ShadowFoam]

Thanks for the info!

[@bent1208]

Highly underrated comment! Same goes for the higher voltage batteries like 40v and 80v. Ryobi has their 18v batteries listed as such but their 40v is just two 18v together and matches any other 36v tool.

[@peterconnolly2724]

For the Drill... I'd choose DeWalt. The Stanley looks like it's almost interchangeable with the DeWalt, but I'm sure there's a tab on the battery that stops them being swapped. Metabo *used* to be Hitachi power tools - good quality, but my concern is that in 10 years time, will they still have parts available? I know that my DeWalt's generally will.

[@malcolmbennett3309]

I am a member of Costco, I have seen the Metabo set, I thought they were expensive, I never realised it included the drill, charger and battery, I'll need to check it out on my next visit.

He was on about your drill bits coming loose. What you didn't do with the last two chucks the DeWalts and the metabo is lock the chuck. Now if you take the chalk very tight and then click it back as if like it was loosening it but you don't loosen it it will lock it will do a click but it will lock the chuck it will never come loose. Not many people know about this because they don't read the instructions.
