Well Jason.... at 14 months and 2 1/2 years....they'd better be sober!
Or were you referring to me?

Actually - this free shipping is open ended, and we've removed the order minimums to qualify.

Realistically - any of us in the woodworking tool business will tell you that our customers tend to skew to the "much more experienced, life-wise" end of the spectrum...and these are the people at greatest risk. For our retail customers - this is in support of social distancing.... no need to come into a store if you don't have to. We will also be happy to accept orders on-line at a store, and deliver to your car in our parking lot (working on that messaging right now). And - the more we can reduce/control interpersonal contact - the better it is for our staff.
I'm NOT happy about about having no contact with my Grandkids - or having family members in quarantine...
Nobody better screw with my shop time.....!
Cheers -

(and no - shipping isn't free.... we're just not charging you for it!)
Thank You Rob. Stay strong both health wise and business wise.

ROB LEE - Thanks for the free shipping. Needed a few things to weather through the corona virus crisis. Lots of time now for projects and shop time.
Best wishes during the coming weeks/months for Rob, Lee Valley, and all the Woodnetters.

Hi Rob,
Yet another great example of customer service from Lee Valley!
"People buy from people they like" - it never changes. Looks like my Visa card will take another hit!
Thanks again, Rob!!!
