Only the NOVTOOLS has expiration ,Not the radio deal if you read it.
Page is still available,they are honoring the free radio deal ,I placed 2 orders,and got credit no problem.


they are giving me trouble over this, how do you explain?


ricoscoro said: they are giving me trouble over this, how do you explain?

I had to give them the URL and once CSR saw page was no problem.


i gave the URL and the guy kept screwing it up.

Can anyone figure out how to find the link through the main site?

Try calling different CSR.


Warm - not hot! Good effort!

If you are in the market for a finish nailer this is hot. This is the lowest price ever for this nailer, usually around $150+

The free $78 radio is a bonus!

Did you order both the same nailer twice and still get the radio free both times?

I e-mailed customer service the web site address and they were able to fix it

Are you using the same address for both accounts?


ricoscoro said:

No,but that should not matter.


Nice post OP!

I placed an order last night and got the confirmation this morning. Could someone please post the number to call. Also, did you just read off the url over the phone to them?


So do you have to order the items first, then call a CSR after you get the order confirmation?

800-201-7575

Yes I just read off URL,
use shorter version posted by bravely.


Swinger said: So do you have to order the items first, then call a CSR after you get the order confirmation?

Thats what I did,I didn't try to place order by phone but may be fine too.

I called approx. 15 mins. after placing order online.


Worked for me although I had to read the entire link to the CSR. Initially the CSR said the item was being sold by Tool King and I had to call them.
Great job OP!!! Fat Wallet again lightens my wallet.


Just got off the phone with Amazon. The CSR stated this was the third call he handled today with with folks wanting the amount for the radio credited so I didn't have to go through the URL problem..... Green for you OP -

I've added in the text I rec'd from them via email:
"Thank you for writing to us at Amazon.com.

I've investigated your order #XXXXXX and found that it
qualified for our promotional offer.

I see that this offer was not properly applied to your order. Please
accept our apologies for this inconvenience.

To correct this error, I have reduced the cost of the item "Milwaukee
49-24-0280 V28 28-Volt Lithium-Ion Job Site Radio" to zero.

Cost Details:
Subtotal: $74.04
Shipping: $22.81
Promos : ($22.81)
Tax : $0.00
Total : $74.04

Although you may see shipping fees listed, you should also see a
promotional credit applied to the balance equaling the amount of the shipping
charge, canceling out the shipping fees.

I hope this solution is satisfactory. Thank you for shopping at Amazon"

Nobody buys straight finish nailers......you want an angled finish nailer.

I do, however, have the older version of this radio and it's terrific.....perfect for having in the workshop where it can take abuse and not flinch and the sound is great....far better than the Dewalt worksite radio.

Yeah, angled finish nailer is best but I already have one of these milwaukee straight nailers and it works great. Angled nailer will work better in tight spots but both are great.


Placed my order for the Milwaukee Nailer and Job Site Radio. Called Amazon to have the price of the radio removed from the invoice and was put on hold for over 10 minutes while the CSR investigated. He agreed that the terms of the offer had been met, but would have to send a message to the Promotions Department and I would hear from them within 24 hrs.
UPDATE: Received a message from Customer Service. They are refunding the price of the nailer $74.04
Thank you OP


Looks like the radio is sold out now. Boo. I bet it comes back in stock though.

Big ups to all who got in. Pretty cut and dry deal.

I hope everyone was keen enough to add the Black & Decker AS600 6-Volt Alkaline Battery Cordless Screwdriver for -$1.26!

20% accessory discount on the $78.49 = $15.70 discount on the $14.44 tool.

Yayz.

Dead

The link provided goes to a generic Amazon page. They found out ...

This was a great deal if you actually get what you ardered.


I placed 2 orders the earlier one shows both items are shipped and second order (placed later after it showed 2-4 weeks) shows radio shipping for free and they removed nailer today saying it was a price mistake.
So now I'm getting total 1 nailer and 2 radios for $74.04.Great deal!

I just got the email stating they had cancelled the nailer. What's the chances that they try to charge full price for the radio now?


Thanks Sadclown!

I called Sun. morning and gave URL to CSR. No problem at all. However, hold time was way long. Both item have shipped and will be here this week.

Excellent post OP!!

Now, I'm debating on keeping the nailer or selling it to break even... Hmmm..........

Here's the email I recieved today.

Best regards,


Thanks OP

I did the whole deal - received the email to credit the $78 for the radio - then they canceled the nailer without even an email! But who cares my credit posted on my CC - Freeeeee Radio - thanks again OP.


I didn't get it backwards....Amazon did. They refunded $74.04. This was a great deal, I've already received both items should I quibble about a measly $4.45?
Update: I did request the $4.45 overcharge. They agreed to refund the excess return shipping I paid...Huh?

straight nailers are very popular, and this is a nice one.


I hope everyone emailed in and got their $14.64 refunds on the coil roofing nailer since it is down to $129.99.

Cash money.
