Frequently Asked Questions
In this section we answer some questions you may have about Samstag Sales. 
1.
Question: Who is Mr. Samstag? Answer: Samstag is the German word for Saturday. Our business began years ago with the need for a special tool to repair a Mercedes. We were already selling stuff on Saturday and soon decided to concentrate on fine German Made hand tools. When we decided to start a tool business, we named the business Samstag Sales. 
2.
Question: Do you rent tools? Answer: Not at this time. We have done some testing of a rental program, but decided not to rent tools at this time. We may try again in the future.
3.
Question: How come when I do a currency conversion on the DM price, your dollar price looks so high? Answer: The DM price is set for the German Market. The DM price is only good in Germany. Soon it will be the Euro, but neither one can be used to compare prices in the US. We must add customs taxes, customs broker fees, international fax/phone charges, and international shipping costs to the DM price to arrive at a dollar price. Please compare prices to other US dealers.

Question: Can you tell me how to adjust the camshaft drive belt on my 1978 Audi Fox? Will the HAZET 2587 wrench work? Answer: No. We do not offer technical advise.
