Where is the best place to buy a variety of tools, both power and hand, in the DR?

Any big warehouse/discount places?

Tools are expensive here. The best selection I have seen is in Americano in Santo Domingo.

Ferreteria Popular has a good store on Ave. San Martin in Santo Domingo, several other good hardware stores there, including Americana, and some specialty places (i.e. different automotive, pumps, air conditioning, etc) too.. This is in the stretch between its intersection going below John f. Kennedy and heading west to Maximo Gomez.

If you finish there, and continue to the west, you will get to the larger Ferreteria Americana store between Lope de Vega and Abraham Lincoln on the right side of John F. Kennedy.

Ferritera Ochoa in Santiago has the best set of tools I have seen down here. Just be sure to get brands like Stanley, Vicegrip. Avoid Chinese made stuff, most of which is of poor quality... Cutting pliers that don't cut...etc. Canadian Bob.
