This is $105 worth of routers. From left to right...........$10, $15, $20 new in box, $20, and $40.

The DeWalt plunger was new. It was a floor model at Lowes, and was missing the collet and a couple other small parts. I offered $40 for it as is, with no returns and they took it. Then I called DeWalt and asked about buying the missing parts. Told them the story and they sent me the missing parts free, no questions asked. Fantastic service.
The little black B&D routers are a favorite of mine, not much bigger than laminate trimmers, they have handles I use like a 'D' handle router, and I leave them set up with round over or trim bits. The routers are cheaper than the bits. One of these days I will build a quick bench top router table that I can quick change these routers into. It would be handy.
