Chief31794 Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 Thanks for the heads up on the pricing there Chief! I think I need to submit a business tax number to get wholesale pricing and I have noticed they are selling single shoulders of herman oak toling leather for the same price Tandy is selling their econo single shoulders. I am going to have to rethink buying local, It is just I am afraid I will get the culls when ordering on line maybe ordering leather should be a phone order or are they quality concious as to what they send out? regardless I believe SLC has the best pricing on their stamps and other tools. SLC customer service is excellent and whether you order over the phone or the web you will not get the "culls", only first rate material. I like calling cause I like to place orders that way, but I've done both and both are a very good experience and you will get 100% better quality than you do at Tandy. I buy their Grade "B" Hermann Oak, it is beautiful. Chief Quote "Life's too short to carry ugly leather"
Members shtoink Posted October 25, 2012 Members Report Posted October 25, 2012 These Pro Series tools must be the ones I had heard about from the previous manager at my local Tandy last year. He had been with Tandy since some time in the mid 60's and was personally disappointed with the way the quality of the tools had gone over the years. How he heard, I don't know, but what he was saying is that Tandy was on a hunt to locate examples of all the older tools the made in order to use as a template for retooling and an effort to increase the quality of the tools. He was only able to speculate on the price point of the new tools, but did say that there was to be more of a human touch along each step of the tools being made instead of what is happening now. I don't have any idea about the standard line of tools, but I do wonder if this Pro Series is what ended up being the result of what he was talking about. Quote
