Now they are trying a DIFFERENT STUNT.
Ive bought a few for various jobs. Seem legit. Usually get them with prime overnight or in a day or two…Every Knipex tool I purchase is awesome. Seems like Knipex on Amazon is legit, and prices are great............but............
1) Super slow to ship
2) Twice now, show inventory and then take a LONG time, then say out, then say they can't honor the price
Anyone had this happen? Pretty irritating, maybe bordering on false ads............
Not a problem with Knipex.Ive bought a few for various jobs. Seem legit. Usually get them with prime overnight or in a day or two…
Oh that’s stupid. I haven’t seen that one yet. I have occasionally put the more expensive version in the cart when there were multiple options.Not a problem with Knipex.
It's Amazon. So I see my card charged $31. For the $23 tool. Completely different seller. This is NOT the first time and it only happens with Knipex tools. Weird. So I hit cancel because it hasn't shipped yet. Nope too late. Preparing to ship. Ugg.
Call Amazon to gripe. Their solution:
"If you don't want to have the item, kindly return them back to us so, you can purchase the $23.03 one"
Ugg.
It started several years back with a Knipex pliers (saw here) that showed in stock, great price, ordered, then Amazon cancelled the order. Out and would not honor the price. How is that even legal?Oh that’s stupid. I haven’t seen that one yet. I have occasionally put the more expensive version in the cart when there were multiple options.
So weird. I must have bought ten sets of different ones over the last few years and no such issue. I have no idea…It started several years back with a Knipex pliers (saw here) that showed in stock, great price, ordered, then Amazon cancelled the order. Out and would not honor the price.

Next was the wire stripper, same game as this most recent escapade.
And it seems to only happen with Knipex. Could be random, but dang.So weird. I must have bought ten sets of different ones over the last few years and no such issue. I have no idea…
Many of us here have have those same symptomsMust stay clear of thread...
I may wind up buying tools again.
What makes them so great?Every Knipex tool I purchase is awesome. Seems like Knipex on Amazon is legit, and prices are great............but............

Amazon? Usually lower prices.What makes them so great?
Trav,I enjoy your responses here with your knowledge and experience with tools.I buy my tools from Handtools From Germany.They have both NSW and Knipex,As I posted earlier about cutting hardened steel in a fish hook,do you have any favorites?I'm thinking 8 inch or 200mm.Thanks!!!I have bought lots of Knipex and NSW pliers from Amazon and knock on wood never had any problem.
I have thought about buying some knipex, but I have had great success with Channelock Brand. I wonder if there are any comparisons floating around online.Amazon? Usually lower prices.
Knipex? straight up quality and durability. Much better steel alloys and robust, fully ergonomic design.
NWS 8" Would be my choice for something like that, 62 HRC will hold up to heavy use.Trav,I enjoy your responses here with your knowledge and experience with tools.I buy my tools from Handtools From Germany.They have both NSW and Knipex,As I posted earlier about cutting hardened steel in a fish hook,do you have any favorites?I'm thinking 8 inch or 200mm.Thanks!!!
