Thumb Tillers at TSC

[johnk]

Was up at my TSC today to buy some bolts in bulk and checked out the attachment inventory. Looks like they are gearing up for the spring because they had to have at least 8 tillers, 5 Middle Busters, a couple sub soilers and about 3 rectangular frame discs and quite a few brush cutters. Hopefully they will throw them on sale.

I am not sure if it is just my local store or if they all do it but my store is very willing to negotiate on the price on their stuff if you talk to a manager. I usually go in there with a number of about 20% off the price and go from there. They will almost always give you 10%, most times more.

Galaxie; sounds like you have a good store{atleast managment} I have taken advertisements in from others stores to show TSC they{other store}were cheaper on same item, they get nasty. Even had one manager tell me "well go shop there then",you can quess what I did. Our TSC's up here leave a lot to be desired, atleast the way they are run. It's a shame because I do enjoy the store, but the negative additudes drive customers away. I even tried to return a product that I bought there, didn't need it {for in store credit} because the label had changed they wouldn't give me the time of day I quess it depends on the area and the people, chain stores seem to have away of getting some real riff raff to work for them.

Not just your store you would think that it is their business which they are running into the ground. Same here with the one I have shopped untill Atwwods opened when I had no choice since other one is other way.

I was in one of the two near me today and they have the yellow implements. Anyone know if they will ship to store? I am in need of a tiller and was looking at the Orange (aka king kutter XB) 48" one. I have a BX1860. Neither of my stores have much of the orange ones though.

They may have changed since last year............

But the only 48" tillers that TSC was selling for Subcompact tractors was an 'offset' model.

Don't get an offset model unless you are buying used and getting a great deal on it.

Purchase a tiller that will cover both tire tracks, you will be much happier.

I purchased the Bush Hog brand for mine, but the King Kutter XB 48 should be a fine implement also.


Hope this helps,

Word of caution:

TSC typically does NOT include the lube oil with PTO implements. Confirm that there is lube in your implement before you leave.

Also, double-check the terms of the warranty. You CANNOT buy a Power Plus warranty for implements.

I worked at a TSC for 6 months, and that was long enough...

. I just ordered one (rain check) this passed Monday from my TSC store. It should be in this coming week. As for being offset or not, I'll just have to wait an see. Offset might not be a bad thing. Upgrade or use a different tractor and still cover the tire tracks or work close to a fence line.

Maybe somebody in the store would have known. Did you ask them?
