"Ordered 24th Sept. Email received and tracking tracking is an American courier. Said delayed about 7 times. How order not valid. Elite uncontactable. No answer to messages, emails or phone calls. Do not go near this company. Dispute raised with my bank."
"Don’t deal with them. They will say they have it but they dont stock anything just a middle man ,was told we got it Don’t worry get financed now it’s oh well they sold that so now you get to wait 2-3 months for the equipment your paying for. Oh or you can pay twice as much and get this one we have in stock. Bait and switch job . They work hand in hand with the finance company to get your money"
"Shipping was a bit expensive and slow, but when shipment arrived damaged, Elite tools sent a replacement much faster and at their cost. In my view, stuff happens and it is how a company responds in those situations that demonstrates their commitment to their customers."
"ZERO STARS! I noticed that many stores did not have my item in stock, so I called Elite Metal Tools to make sure they had the tool in stock. They told me they did I would have the machine by next week. I ordered online, and they IMMEDIATELY took the $1039.00 from my credit card. As I just traveled ONE HOUR to Brentwood NH to finish picking up specialty lumber at the yard, that next morning I get an email saying they did not have the item and there was no way in knowing when the manufacturer would have the item. I have the wood for this project, and it is for my daughters birthday. Now I am stuck without the surface planer I wanted to purchase and may go buy another machine I really do not want to keep in my shop. I plan on spending thousands updating three machines this year, and Elite Metal Tools will not be on the list of places to buy even a machine screw."
"They are just taking your money! I placed an order 3 weeks ago. They never shipped it and you can't get a hold of them"
"I placed an order a week ago. My credit card was charged immediately but the order has not shipped and they will not return emails and have no telephone contact. Don't buy from them, no matter how good the price seems as they are not shipping orders."
"Very fast shipping, and great prices. Will definitely order from Elitetools.ca again. Thanks"
"Great easy to use website, product as described and arrive quickly. Ron D"
"Terrible communication.. emails take days or longer to be answered… items show in stock but are actually out of stock, then get told 4-8 weeks. Don’t bother with this place for online purchases.."
"Website was easy to navigate and tool selection is very good. Quick shipping and products received as expected."
"Shipping was fast. The item I received is missing a metal strap. Other then that it was a good experience shopping there.."
"I placed an order, and after two weeks still in processing status, called the company twice and they promised to get back to me, but no one did call back or send email. I canceled the order"
"Professional assortment in the webshop. Easy ordering and timely shipping."
"The product that I bought was missing some parts. I tried to call, no answer, I tried emailing, some answer but then stopped. I asked to return the product, no answer. I ended up having to dispute the payment."
"No follow up, no return call. I place mi order on december 31 2023. Since jan 5 2024 the order is on pick status and since jan 9 the status is ship. I call several time 4 they where supose to call me back but no call yet. I call GLS they say that is not pick yet ?????????"
"I ordered some tools from the Boxing Day sale on Dec 26/23. Part of my order was correct and part was incomplete. I ordered the 18" Incra ruler set of 3 rulers. I received 1. I called them and was told they would call back. They didn't. I called again a few days later. They said again I would get a call back soon from them. No I didn't. I emailed them with no response. I called a 3rd time and the person was very nice and took all of the relevant info. She said someone would get back to me asap. I guess asap means different things to different people. No call back yet. I have ordered tools from them in the past with a good shopping experience. They sell quality tools that aren't available everywhere. I am feeling Ghosted."
"Product arrived in good shape but the customer support at elite tools is non existent. I made a mistake when placing the order and needed to correct it. Website does not allow you to cancel or edit your order and it is impossible to reach anyone at elite tools directly. I left multiple messages with the call center and the order shipped more than 10 days later with no call back."
"I found one of the items (Rockler Interlock State Park template) I planned on purchasing and will purchase at least two more sets when they are back in stock. All sets are very competitively priced (best I could find in Canada). I look forward to purchasing more items on Elitetools.ca. I have not used them yet but everything is in order and I look forward to my first project."
"I placed an order with Elite Tools on November 23, 2023 and a month went by without any status updates. On December 29, 2023 I sent an email to their support asking for an update. There was no response (I even checked my spam folder). I sent another email on Jan. 4, 2024. Still no response. I called on Jan. 5, 2024 and was told someone would get back to me. Nobody did. I sent yet another email on Jan. 11, 2024 asking for my order's status. As of Jan. 16th (coming up to 2 months after I ordered), nobody has responded to me in any way and I have not received my order. Terrible customer service. Stay away from this business."
"I called last week about my order , you never returned my call and i dont have received my order...im about to cancell the order..."
