dboisclair Posted December 2, 2017 Report Share Posted December 2, 2017 I'm putting together a tool kit to give to our handyman for Christmas and I'm looking for recommendations on where to buy mid-range tools. I can buy Stanley at Walmart but does anyone have firsthand experience on where I'll get the best bang for my buck? Does anyplace down here have "sales" like we do in Canada? I know I can look at the Monday market in Chapala too, but I don't think the quality is very good. It may be that Walmart is the easiest solution but all advice and recommendations appreciated Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 In Riberas on the mountain side right next to "Have Hammers". If you're coming from the east and going west, it's just past the 711. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bournemouth Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 Maybe the OP also needs to know it is a thrift store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is, and whatever is placed there is on consignment. The consignor sets the price, and it is progressively reduced by the personnel there as time goes by without it selling. They keep a percentage of the sale price. My husband recently took a number of tools he no longer uses and they sold quickly for decent prices. We also took in an office chair and two rockers. Their layout is well done. The store is larger than it looks from the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
