there is a thread on here somwhere with a copy of receipts from lowes for less then $50

print it out take it to your lowes and they should match that price!



also if you can get more I am sure it would be easy to make a few bucks selling them here or elsewhere.

good luck

Ive been seeing alot of those threads lately.

Why is lowes getting rid of the PC?

I believe that Lowe`s is not making much money off of the PC7336 due to the lack of interest in the product (in general, definitely not when it comes to detailers :)) So they`re clearing out their shelves.

I believe lowe`s only price match within there competitors, not within their store chain

That is how I bought one for $47.60. I printed off the receipt from that thread posted above. I showed it to the customer service desk and said politely, "can you price match this?". After all Lowes is Lowes. They did it. I am sure the manager didn`t like it, but no push back.

i dont believe its lack of interest. Porter Cable got purchased, and supposedly they are not going to carry the name anymore.

I found one (7336) today for 58.00 + tax at Lowes in Tennessee. `already have a 7424 but I thought it would be good for a back-up. On an interesting note, the box had a price of 98.50 but the shelf was tagged 58.60 so I had the paint desk scan it, $65.00 tax incl.

Hmmm... I did a little research:

" * 2004 - Black & Decker announced the purchase of the Tools Group from Pentair, Inc. (NYSE: PNR). The Tools Group, included the Porter-Cable, Delta, DeVilbiss Air Power, Oldham Saw, and FLEX businesses."



I also saw the SEC filings for Black & Decker on that transaction in 2004 from Pentair Tools Group. Also if you go here:

Porter-Cable - About Us - Overview - History (http://www.portercable.com/index.asp?e=270)



You see the company history of Porter Cable and it`s intentions going forward.



In my opinion, PC has a strong brand name. I highly doubt the PC brand is going to go away. I just think what is happening with Lowes, it maybe flushing out inventory of PC to make room for more product and/or just discontinue it`s relationship with the PC brand. Which is common with retailers.

If you purchased your PC within the last 7 days stop by Lowes and check the prices. If the price has gone down take your receipt to customer service and they will refund the orginal price and re-ring it at the lower price.

I just came back from lowes and I got a PC for $22.31! :woohoo:

The Lowes had 2 left. 1 new and one display model. I took the new one up to the customer service counter and presented them with a print of a recipt that listed the PC for 47.60. They happily matched that price, then I inquired how much the display model would be. She said 22.31!! :wow: So needless to say I bought them both!



Hopefully some of you might be able to take advantage of this deal. Here is my recipt and good luck. I had to drive an hour to find a store that had one near me.
