Jamerco for real?

I was looking at getting a Jamerco Framing Nailer recently and wanted
more information. They have a website, but none of the phone numbers
work and when I tried emailing, the mail was returned as undeliverable.

Do they really exist? Did they belly-up? I've seen posting about this
brand and have even seen a test of nailers that included the brand.
What gives?

I have had a Jamerco upholstery stapler for several years. It has
worked well, no complaints.

However, Hitachi has their NR90AD clipped-head framer brand new for
only $279. I recently acquired a briefly-used Paslode F350S refurbed
by the shop that sold it originally, for $180. Just a bit of scuffing
from use. The new F350S is also about $279.
You can get these NIB from Ebay for a bit less (sometimes
substantially less).

If you are ready to spring for around $250, I recommend going for
either Hitachi or Paslode, since the tool will probably outlast you.
You're not likely to ever buy another one.

Well, they did exist. A fella I work with has a Jamerco palm nailer and a
powder actuated tool (like a Hilti) made by them. I just checked their
site, looks like a lot of construction going on with it. IMO for the $250
they want for a stick nailer, you may be better off with a company you will
be able to locate in the future if there is a problem! --dave
