I know this may be a long shot but, I need your guy's help. I will be making a very large purchase from grizzly soon and was hoping someone here might have a grizzly coupon floating about. I have tried looking online but all their coupons are one time onlys and are all spent. I would really appreciate any help.

Grizzly chew? I like the wintergreen myself. As a matter of fact, I got a lip in right now. What are you buying? A few logs of dip or what?
In all seriousness I believe he's referring to the machines

Just to clarify I mean the the tool company. Even a 5% coupon could save me nearly 60 bucks so I really appreciate any help.

Thread cleaned, keep on topic please.
Tell us what your going to buy so we have more to work with, other wise I really don't see it happening.

Let's see... 5% = 60$, then the product you want to buy is around 1200$.
Do you want to buy something like this?

No, close though. More like a G0602 and some tooling.

Considering who made that lathe you should do some comparative shopping. Grizzly wants 300 to much for it...

Too right, look around elsewhere. Lots of machine tools come out the same factory painted different, and can have hundreds of dollars of parity in prices.

While they may be asking a little much for it. I don't have to pay shipping and they have amazing customer service.

customer service is really what you have to look out for when buying these Chinese import tools... Be wary of who is rebadging it!
Similar story but to do with my Tig/Plasma/Stick combo welder - I researched a lot before buying it and right away noticed that some simple things like free shipping weren't included with the same model sold by difference people. This came in really handy because i ended up going through 4 machines before I got one that ALL The functions worked properly (the Tig mode has AC/DC functionality and even offers pulsing controls...) - and they still do to this day (2 years later). Had I been docked with shipping that would have been 7+$70 or almost $500 - half of the machines cost!
I agree with irisher on the fact that Grizzly has amazing CS - My first job as a cabinet maker had me working with a few of their heavier machines and on the occasion that we needed something like a new worm drive gear or set of planing blades - they had them there in a day.
