How to market all these Panasonic 12v Drills?

Sorry Lee I already own 5 dewalts 18v .I know they will be good tools for some of our members ,I remember a drill test in FWW putting Panasonic on top.

I have been loyal to the name for many years, Jim. I like everything about them. I’ve had batteries rebuilt with grand success. I have replaced a few gearboxes and switches a decade ago when we were doing production work but for general day to day use they have been outstanding.

They seem to be more refined than many other lines I’ve looked at. “fit and finish” is the phrase. I’m a little sad to see them go!

Kindly,

Lee

how much will you be asking for them Lee ?

I’m still puzzling over whether to package them or itemize.

I’ll try itemize here:

charger: $20 (3 available)

2 EY6405 (these are the newest), including battery, $60 each.

2 older EY6406 (oddly, the older ones have a larger model number), including battery, $50 each

1 oldest. It runs down in rpm when you release the trigger, instead of braking as the others do. w/ 2 batteries, $40.

I wouldn’t trust these in a small Priority box, so think of shipping as $15.

If you want the whole enchilada, which makes my life simpler, I’ll pay the freight.

Payment by PayPal preferred.

Kindly,

Lee

The two newest, #6405, purchased 7/11 and 11/10

$60 each

Older 6406, $50 each

-- "...in his brain, which is as dry as the remainder biscuit after a voyage, he hath strange places cramm'd with observation, the which he vents in mangled forms." --Shakespeare, "As You Like It"

Oldest, with two batteries, $40

Chargers, $20 each

With three chargers, I bust ‘em up and sell them in three lots.
Good buys on all.

Lee ,just to clarify for $60 for the newer one come with one battery and no charger unless purchase separately for $20 .

$60 1 drill 1 battery
$20 charger
$15 shipping
$95 total is this correct Lee

That is correct, Hai.

No takers so far. Are these tools doomed to end up on the ‘bay?

I agree to split them into three lots. Only a true freak like us wants to buy a half dozen drills at one time;) I understand what happened to you. I picked up that stupid little DeWalt and almost bought one on the spot. I’ve been in trouble before for using this word here, but I thought they were “cute”. I’ve got 4 Li+ Bosch that are brand new (got robbed; insurance), so I can’t buy your Panasonics. My Bosch replaced Makita and I’ve got to say, I think I liked the Makita better. It’s funny how everyone’s different when it comes to cordless drills. Good luck!

My switch went bad on my Makita 18v lithium ion drill, purchased new, and now I’m not sure of Makita’s
quality anymore.
I took it apart and some stupid plastic part was broken, which would be understandable if I abused the drill,
but I don’t.
Strange.
I’m glad Panasonic has served you well Lee. I’ve only heard they were great drills but no one I know has them.
Oh well.

I’m a big Panasonic fan. Had both the 15.6V and 12V variety. And I thought they were far superior to the Dewalts of the day, still do. Just my 2 cents worth.

-- Joe from Western Ma.... Peace to all

I would also sell them as “kits” ...drill , battery, charger…...if three people buy your chargers , you will be stuck with drills and batteries , but nothing to offer the interested people to recharge them with. JMO : )
