Power augers at Costco

[Headhunter]

Sorry for the delay in reporting this... I was in the Ajax Costco on Sunday and they have this http://www.costco.ca/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=10329725&search=Ice%20Auger&topnav=&Mo=0&cm_re=1_en-_-Top_Left_Nav-_-Top_search&lang=en-CA&Nr=P_CatalogName:BCCA&N=0&whse=BCCA&Dx=mode%20matchallpartial&Ntk=Text_Search&Dr=P_CatalogName:BCCA&Ne=4000000&D=Ice%20Auger&Ntt=Ice%20Auger&No=0&Nty=1&Ntx=mode%20matchallpartial

in stock, actually they had 6 in stock on Sunday. The price was $289.00, which I thought was a good deal.

Anyway, just thought I'd pass this along for those on the market for a new auger.

289, 299 seems to be the perfect price. There was a auger at CT in Lindsay for 299-3hp it was. If it's there after christmas im buying one. Can't beat it.

I bought the Eskimo Mako at Costco a few weeks ago. I think it was $284.99.

 

The Mako has a 43cc motor, the one at CT for $299 is the Eskimo Sidewinder with only a 33cc motor if that makes much difference.

I bought one of these last year and the Eskimo's are by far the easiest starting auger I've ever seen on the ice.

Mike, if it was a Jiffy you had seen there it is/was a refurbished unit. CTC sells a LOT of refurb Jiffy units each year. Oh and Costco offers a 2-year warranty and frankly they take back anything at any point as long as you have the bill.

 

Jer, the 43 is 2HP so the 22 it 1.5HP I would guess?

 

Ben, good to know as I bought one this year, yee haa!

Actually, they'll take back anything even if you don't have a bill. I found that out a few weeks ago when I had to return something about 2 months after I bought it and could not find the bill. They went clickity clickity on thier computer and it was there and they refunded no problem. Actually, that's kind of scary - Big Costco Brother watching

they have the best return program over ANY store.

Princess Auto has them as well, but I'd be lying on a price.

PA.. $500 and they're sold out according to their website.

If I can find a fellow OFC member that want's to go for a drive from Lindsay to the nearest Costco let me know. I don't have a member ship there but I'll put out a status asking for a lift, maybe a ice fishing trip the same day around here to test it out.

PM ME where you are at now as I MAY be able to help
