About The Tool Bandit
The Tool Bandit is a one-person site run by a mechanic and DIYer. It started from a simple frustration: tool deals are scattered across a dozen retailers, and most deal sites just repost list prices with big discount badges. This site does two things instead: it tracks actual deals on pro tools and mechanics equipment, and it publishes guides that explain which tool lines and brands are worth your money.
How deals are verified
Every deal price is checked by hand against the retailer's live listing before publication, and each deal's details show the date it was last checked. Prices and availability change frequently and are ultimately controlled by the retailer. The price you see on the retailer's site is the final authority. If you spot a price that doesn't match, let us know.
How the site makes money
The site earns through affiliate links, currently the Amazon Associates program and the AWIN affiliate network. When you buy through a link, the site may earn a percentage of the sale at no extra cost to you. There are no paywalls and no sponsored placements disguised as deals. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
Independence
The Tool Bandit is not owned by, sponsored by, or affiliated with any tool brand or retailer. Brand and retailer names are shown as text only, with no logos.
