They figured it would cost me about the same as buying another unit.

Since I didn't have a warranty I torn it down and figured out what the problem was.

And the nail gun that was included with the compressor.... lasted for 15 nails.

I don't buy near as much from them as I used too. But when I am in there I warn people that they need to ask about the return policy when I walk by....even if they are with a sales person.

Yeah, that's the way their return policy works. I did some research on them and found several sites of customer complaints against them. Many, many unhappy people. So if you do buy from C.T, I urge you to ask about the return policy on the item you want to buy.
