I think they jack the prices up to account for the 20% off coupons they distribute everywhere.
I don't buy a whole lot there but some things are good to go cheap on like epoxy brushes and rubber gloves.
I bought a small fountain pump for flushing boat motors with star brite, really nasty stuff. I figured for $8 if it did 1 motor I'd be happy, it's done two now.
I went through 4 gloves the other day to get one that didn't tear when I was mixing some JB Weld putty. But to be fair most of the tools on my boat are from HF. And I think their Pittsburg line of tools are comparable to Craftsman, just cheaper.
Lol i have definitely done the same. But to be fair I have done that with the HF gloves and also higher quality brand ones.
HF products are one of those things you should spend 5 minutes and look at reviews first. If it is 4 or 5 star you will probably be just fine. Less than that and its a crap shoot. I have plenty of HF tools and havent had an issue with them.
And yeah prices have gone up....but lets be honest what hasnt gone up in price in the last few years.
