King Kutter - any recommended online vendors with reasonable shipping?

Did I read that right? You plan to steal a pine rake from Everything Attachments? Or just a can of paint?

Oh, man ... don't take this thread down that road, too. :talktothehand:

If you are open to brands other than King Kutter, look at this site:

Iowa Farm Equipment -- Rotary Tillers & Power Harrows


While I have never owned a tiller, HOWARD and Kuhn are reviewed by others as top brands.

That's a sweet arrangement for sure, Mike.
We had to order a 5' cutter because our store didn't have a flex hitch in stock. When it arrived at the store, they delivered it to our place at no charge. A very nice gesture.

Yes, that is how a business keeps customers.

I was dumbfounded at the number of places that told me I would have to pay $500 or $600 in shipping if I purchased from them and yet there add said that it would be shipped direct from the factory. They were just trying to take my money and thought I would be stupid enough to pay it.

Rototillers (Tractor)

We've had great luck with the Cherokee tillers. They are rebranded and sold by some of the bigger name companies, so you have several options for parts support which is sorely lacking with many of the cheap implement companies.

Audsp98 - Everything Attachments is expensive relative to other vendors, and after receiving a pine needle rake last week that had paint scratched off down to the bare metal in numerous places, and them not wanting to make any adjustments other than sending me a can of spray paint, I'm not going to send my money to them

Fried1765 - thanks -- I'll check out Blaine's. When you ordered from them, was it residential lift gate service?

Yes!
It was residential lift gate service.
In each of my deliveries though, they have not asked about that.
I did not volunteer any information either.
Just ordered the item on line, with their shipping price added.
As it turns out, in my area, I think virtually every LTL delivery is done with a lift gate.
The drivers did not actually use the lift gate on my deliveries though, as I picked each attachment out of the truck with my forks.
My recommendation, if you order from Blaine's:
Just fill out the online order, with shipping, and pay the total. Sit quietly back, and wait for the delivery call.
Leave the mechanics of the delivery to them.

No you didn't!

 

[bigtiller]

No you didn't!

He received the product and has decided not to send his money into them. How is that not stealing?

 

[countrybumpkin]

He is saying he will never do business with them again!

Dude -- they wouldn't have shipped it to me if I didn't pay. I'm not sending my TILLER money to them, because I was dissatisfied with how last week's purchase went.

 

[airbiscuit]

I think you'll both be happy with that decision.
