Message Subject Wal-Mart is the ONLY store in America that sells useful things

I bought a Black and Decker power screwdriver from Sears. I use it a good deal. My dad bought a nearly identical one from Wal-Mart...his wore out in under a year, so he bought another one...he doesnt use it for more than an average homeowner might around the house...it's now dead. I hang more ruggedly, drop it, have thrown it across a server room, used it to rack mount servers, and it's still ticking.

The ONLY difference between these too are..the model number. Both are the same with the exception both of his ended in a 'W' and say made in China. Mine states Made in United States of America....his....states specifically...Manufactured in China.

You can get the SAME screwdriver at Target for the SAME price as that Wel-Faremart sells, yet it says made in America, and carries the listed part number on www.blackanddecker.com. Note, the one wel-faremart sells isnt listed, but linked for the instructions, and web page, but the parts are infact different.

This is true. Wal-mart knows everything about their suppliers and actually dictates the price that manufacturers sell them products at, right down to the penny. So some manufacturers sell them lower quality goods or items made in China, the only place where they can afford to manufacture them under Wal-Mart's demands.
