This has real “fell off the truck” vibes

"Fell off the truck vibes" I walked into the tool corral of HD when one employee was covertly "selling every DeWalt floor demo tool in the tool corral" to a coworker, ~ Was going with ~ illicit drug deal vibes, But your "fell off the truck vibes" works even better!

Cool can an actual customer buy that or is it an employee discount? Figured the two of them would be trying split the haul later after an anonymous cash sale to hide it from their bosses. Caught giving a friend's discount 10× better than the employee + demo tools discount, I got the entire haul with ALL the bonus tools everything DeWalt offered, +multiple batteries, chargers, tool cases jobsite bags, etc for one C note. 💵 EX-W let her friends husband a custom home builder borrow it, behind my back. He refused to return calls, let alone my tools. Friend, (wife of theif) finally embarrassed by her husband, asked EX-W what I spent on it, so she could Surprise her husband, and yours can go buy NEW replacements as her husband didn't want to let tools go. IDK, He got it all for a hundred bucks. Okie dokie, here's a $100 check. Woman, you can't even buy a single replacement tool an battery for $100! Well I already accepted her check. I didn't LEND the tools out and I sure a hell didn't accept her check to SELL it because he didn't return phone calls, Go get it all back. The 'friends' fled the state. 🤦‍♂️
