Sadly it looks like that Mafell 2018 price increase has hit Timberwolf. I wish they would have given a little warning about a price increase, or maybe they did and i just didn't see it. That's a little disappointing especially when you are in Canada and its not just the tool price increase that you have to pay more on. It all adds up to hundreds of dollars more for the same thing. I wish Canada could get its only Mafell dealer.

I wish Canada could get its only Mafell dealer. I had an item in my cart that I had planned on buying before the price increase, thinking they would announce it in advance and I would place my order then, to avoid the increase (not wanting to spend the money until I had to). When I pulled up my cart, the item was still listed at the old price, but when I went to checkout, it increased to the new price. With no incentive to spend the money now, I will wait until later in the year to make my purchase.

I don’t really expect anything costumer friendly from Timberwolf

Wasn't Toolnut getting all his Mafell's from Timberwolf anyway?

Yes they were getting everything from Timberwolf To be exact 5 items noting more At the beginning there was hope they are going to have the full line of Mafell tools But I guess that was just wishful dreaming on my part Maybe I misunderstood Unfortunelly good HONEST service is not common in this area

Well if it's any consolation all signs are pointing to the blockchain shaking up things up over the next few years. With things like transaction exchange rates being circumvented, anonymity, and therefore shipping restrictions undermined - the increasingly thin reasons that give local retailers a preference/advantage now will be further eroded as they either compete in a leveled playing field or go out of business. Everyone is aware now and looking forward, it's just that some think the solution is circling the wagons. I look at mighty China's recent efforts, trying desperately to abolish cryptocurrency, and crypto has only gotten stronger. So 'if' the Wolf is trying to protect itself in a brick house a billion pigs are about to come knocking.

Glass half empty: It ain't like Shane Holland does not see all of the FOG/MUF posts with his customers bragging about how they imported a Mafell tool just to save a measely $70 over the Toolnut price.

Just a P1cc package off of ebay UK saves $272 (shipped) vs same items from the Wolf. But even if you’re talking some minor accessories - Amazon UK saved me $115. ( Do I really need a warrantee for a rail, rail connector, end caps etc.? ) Mafell is overpriced as is and T-Wolf doesn’t make the product. They’re just in sales, they ship unopened boxes. The market votes with it’s money and even $1 sends a message.
