Ditto same message here.

Well the website shows that they may have more in stock tomorrow. I think I have a better change ordering them online then looking for them in the local store.

As given in the other thread, free shipping code through March is now: RTA60

Went to Rockler store in Schaumburg, Il store for lunch and luckily they just got delivery and was actually unloading it. There are a total of two pallets of these. The clamps are package in boxes, there are 3 clamps per box. I ended up grabbing 2 boxes of these. So if you live in the Chicagoland area and want some of these clamps, go to the store and grab some while they last. 4 other gentlemen each with two boxes that were checking out while I was there. Good luck!

D A M N you all! May your wallets get lighter with more deals too!

I now have eight clamps headed my way.

Out of curiosity, how does one specify Sam/BT3's affiliate code, as well as the free shipping one? I used Sam's link, but had to change the code for free shipping; I left a comment with Sam's AF362 code and asked them to credit him with the purchase.

Received mine

But while at the price they're ok, they are pretty shabby. They will work, but sitting next to my old USA made 10" handscrew clamps they are blushing with shame. If you're careful not to cut yourself on the cheesy ferrules or get splinters from the clamp bodies (oak, not traditional maple) you should be ok.

As always, Rockler's service was great, and the clamps really are ok for the price--but they're not a deal, they're $4.50 clamps.

Glad I resisted to get more that the two I ordered. Thanks for the review.

Try Harbor Freight

I got some of these F-clamps from HF a while back and they are fantastic. I think they are bigger than the ones Rockler is offering, but I'd have to measure to be sure (14" rings a bell, but not 100% sure). Mine appear to be maple and are well made.

When I last went into HF (a couple of days ago), they had 6" handscrews for $2.50. I bought a couple of 'em. The 8 and 10" models weren't on sale.

Well I'm not an expert, but my clamps are definitely NOT oak. Also, they aren't shabby at all. The ferruls are tight and don't have any sharp edges, and really only one corner is a bit chipped. I think they're a definite deal. I don't think I needed more than the 2 I ordered, but I definitely don't regret the purchase.

Got mine today and I agree they are great.

I don't know if I can certify that mine are Maple (although they look close) it is definitely not Oak as well. The ferrules are only slightly cheesy, but they look very serviceable at under $5 a piece.

Mine just arrived today and for the price I'm very please.

BTW, you need to check your invoice. I got the free shipping when ordering but I checked my invoice and they charged my card an extra $7.99 for S&H.

A quick call to Rockler and they said they will credit it back.

Just rechecked my invoice and no charges for shipping.
