Harbor Freight customers could be entitled to settlement money

Consumers who purchased tools from Harbor Freight in the last several years could be entitled to money from a settlement in a lawsuit against the company.

This lawsuit alleged that Harbor Freight violated the law by advertising merchandise as "on sale" or "comp at" that had not been sold at the stated regular or "comp at" price for 28 of the preceding 90 days.

Harbor Freight officials disputed the allegations and said the company complied with all applicable laws.

People who purchased products between April 8, 2011, and Dec. 15, 2016, could be eligible for a claim. All claims must be submitted by Aug. 7.
