06RTCharger Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Finally got the crimper i wanted today. Check it out. Ill be posting my thoughts on it when i start using it. Looks VERY high quality, very durable, legit peice of equipment for a decent price. There are some other crimpers with the same features that cost thousands. This cost me $370.27 and 3 months of patience lol waiting for restock and delivery. Comes with 12 different dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zack_e89 Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Wow that looks really nice, looks very high quality like you said. No hate or anything - Are you going to use it a lot? I know you said there are some comparable that cost thousands but it just seems like a lot of money to me. I've been using the $40 yellow case one from amazon for years and has worked just fine, but I'm not an everyday installer or anything - just used on my systems. 97 Suburban 8 custom PSI Platform 3 18's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol those cheap ones are what everyone told me to get. I couldnt do it. I wouldve more likely found a way to rent the thousand dollars tools than buy a generic tool. Just my personal preference. I probably wouldnt be using it alot. Specially after my builds done. Maybe on future builds. Maybe on friends builds. Whatever comes up. It wasnt that expensive to me considering the other things ive bought for the build and how important the electrical aspect of the build is.

audiofanaticz Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Looks like a nice crimper, but its no 1600 crimper... On their own ebay page they where asked and the reply was " Why does the sale price seem unusually high? temco_industrial : Price was raised temporarily due to low stock. Price will be returned to normal when we regain stock levels." That being said I dont know if I would support a company that price gouges their own customers. That is a shady and shitty sales tactic no matter how nice the thing maybe.https://contact.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?FindAnswers&redirect=0&iid=371533222016&requested=temco_industrial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what their deal was but as soon as i sent another email becuase the first guy i been communicating with multiple times stopped replying, the new responder had my shit sent out that day and i had a tracking number, estimated arrival was monday, it came friday but i missed it so i had to pick it up today monday at the post office. I guess the cool part about waiting that long is i didnt have to pay shipping lol. That was some fast ass shipping too from cali to honolulu to maui. I sent the email wednesday 29th 10am, two days later, friday afternoon usps brought it to my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
