Wood River Parallel Clamps - illegalsmile - 06-28-2016
I snagged a few of these some years back from WoodCraft on sale at Xmas time. Have been great clamps and were very reasonably priced. But I cant seem to find them anywhere now. Did they stop making them?
Any recommendations on a decent parallel clamp that does not break the bank also welcome !

Lee Valley currently has a deal on a set of four:
“Until June 29, 2016, we're offering a set of four clamps, two with a 23-3/4" opening and two with an opening of 39-1/2" for only $139 – a saving of $53 compared to individual prices. ”
I bought these, and they seem fine so far (which of course is not very long).

I think the Groz clamps replaced them?

Forgot to mention, Woodcraft has Jet clamps on black friday sale for 1/2 price. They've done it 2 years in a row. Every year I get a few more.

Got an email yesterday that Peachtree's regular four clamp package deal would be on sale for $100 vs. the $145 regular price. JULY16 is the discount code. Believe it might kick in free shipping too.

Email said the offer expires midnight eastern on July 5th.
I'd say $100 is a fair deal for that. I paid $90 last winter for the exact same set with a Groz label on them. They were on clearance at Wood Craft. And like you, I had Wood River clamps that I was going to try to keep going with, but they quit making them.
