Scammed by Customer Returns? - Part 2

I Bought a PALLET of BROKEN Power Tools - Part 2 of me trying to fix 30 broken DeWalt, Milwaukee, Ryobi, Ridgid, Craftsman, and Porter Cable power tools. In this video I'll be focusing on the non-working DeWalt and Milwaukee tools. And I'll show you the price break down and my potential profit from this purchase.

Hey I really love your videos. I watch a lot of them, and have thought about doing this as a side gig. Can you give any idea if without youtube this has been financially viable?

[Jimmyspangle]

Steve. Great to see you looking so well. I had cancer 13 years ago and am still in remission, so from one fixer to another, I am delighted you are so improved.

[DarmokAtTanagra]

I like how transparent and honest you are about how feasible this is as a money-making operation - $110 profit for hours and hours of work. But if you have a monetized Yt channel where you can get more $$ for the video of doing it all...Well, probably still not much! In it for the satisfaction more than anything...I feel that!

Before our store shut down this is why we made sure everything was in the box first before accepting returns, so many people try those switcheroo shenanigans. 😕

[MyAdventurr]

This direction toward new repair items is SUPER INTERESTING! Love it!
I knew it’d be fun watching you problem solve and completely fix items you don’t normally work on.

[heyjustj]

Sucks that it’s not super profitable to resell but I do LOVE seeing you switch up the types of things you’re repairing.

There’s some things worth repairing to keep and use to save money vs trying to make a profit. I feel like tools is a good example of that.

[davidknightx]

It's honestly amazing you didn't take a loss with the amount of missing tools they gave you.

[fmbbeachbum]

The amount of people in this country that do these return scams is staggering. Tells me all I need to know about those types of people.

[Paul-IE-Repairs]

the com bars overheated and melted the brushes and the brush springs, causing your intermittent issue, its pretty common on the brushed milwaukee tools

run that dewalt electronics group through an ultra sonic cleaner, i get a few hundred tools through my work center annually that the water department abuses and a majority of the time a good thorough cleaning fixes them.

[markrowe]

I mean you got some nice DeWalt bags 🤔😃

[ericjenks]

Also complete aside, thank you for your videos. It gave me the push to open up an xbox one and fix the failing disk drive! Cleaned it up, new laser installed, and it works perfectly now. $15 in parts! I appreciate the way you make all these repairs feel accessible

[georgebagdasarian]

Man I am so happy you are back and kicking ass !! I wish the best to you and your loved ones !!

[milliondollarbike]

Your color is looking so good and your hair is growing back nicely! I hope your treatments are going well!

[MatthewKodatt]

Love these! It's fun to follow along through the full teardown/exploration for the repair. Please keep them coming. Thanks Steve

[diegosorio]

I hate the zero trust society we live in. Bunch of dirt bags buying new tools and returning garbage for a full refund. Unbelievable!

[brandonpoole]

Those Milwaukee nailers do have a depth set so you might check that out. Even though I already love your channel I do love the addition of tool repair. Always been an advocate of repair over replace.

[RandyFortier]

It really is a testament to the reliability of Dewalt tools. Considering how much worksite dust and drywall plaster was inside those, yet most of them still work.

[valahnuk]

Refreshing to see you fix something else than just consoles.

More of these videos please!

[dalesworld]

Unbelievable how people have the balls to just steal like some of these returns prove. Good fixes on the broken stuff.

[TboneLoyal]

My guess is the person who used it smoked it. Over heated it on those contacts trying to make it drill something it wasn’t meant to do.

I have seen the smoke in mine before 😊. And glad to know you are doing better. My son just finished his leukemia treatments. Praise the Lord. Keep making content.
