I really like the design of the SK114 chuck, and the selection of jaws is excellent as well. Prices are a tad below Oneway and Vicmarc, too.
Going through the checkout process with them, I was surprised on one hand, by low shipping costs. On the other, I was surprised to see Florida sales tax being charged. Looking into it a bit more, Axminster uses a 3rd party to process international orders, payments, and delivery (Global-e), which also becomes the seller of record! This wasn't expected, so I bailed before completing the transaction.
Have any of you purchased from Axminster? Any issues?
I'm getting Chuckstrated, having priced out a variety of combos from Axminster (1st choice), Vicmarc (strong 2nd, but $ouch$), and lately, Recordpower. Not really interested in Oneway, despite their reputation. I don't like the open back and I prefer a hex key.
