Hey mate

Warn have Sell there entry level winches called Tabor. 1/2 the price and still a good winch, using cheaper material to make it cost affective.. A good winch for a cheap price should be around $1000 mark.. Tigerz11 claim there winches are between 800-1000 bucks but they sell them for half that... Its all Rubbish tigerz winches arent even worth 1/2 what they sell them for...
It really pays to research... Runva, Kingone winches are fantastic for the Price..

i remember a thread from 18months ago or so where a guy bought an unbelievebly cheap no name winch direct from china. it was something like $260 delivered for a 12000 pounder. He kept track of when he used it and as far as i know he got a year or so out of it before the thread disappeared. Not sure how long it lasted in the end and cant remember who it was lol, time for a thread dig

Jay, these are actual serious questions, i don't doubt your experience and knowledge mate, i know you will know more about winches than myself, so thats why i have to ask, but please don't think im being smart, i am actually trying to ask nicely so i can learn what you mean, but sometimes on the web its hard to express tone etc.






Whats the difference in price between a Warn and a Tabor ?, and do you think the better material they use for the Warn brand costs them that same amount extra for them to make one ?


Am i reading it right, you are saying "any" no name brand winch for a $1000 is good ?

If.....that is correct, Tigerz winches are not good because they are cheaper than a $1000 ?, but if they charged over a $1000, they would move into the good cheap winch catagory then ?

@ Lucas you losing it bud, or was that thread just a fig in your imagination, lol

Re branding is everywhere , My GLW worked at Berger paints for Yonks {long time}
K-mart paint was Berger paint in a different can.

Aldi winches from what I read here shape up OK, Tigerz not so good But I'd never buy Tigerz I'd save a bit longer and get the product I really wanted.
Just need to be patient.

@ 4OFF I'll fire off an Email to Ateco on monday , to see if they can put some light on this for you
