Wondering why this display model PC band saw at our local Lowe's hasn't been snatched up along with the "matching" drill press?

I imagine the rusty saw table might have something to do with it.

That seems to be the regular price for that saw (not a display model) at Lowe's here - they say they can have it available for pickup in 1-3 days. Not sure about the drill press.

It is all in the fine print:

My bandsaw is a 14" with a 12" depth. It can also use up to a 3/4" blade.

If I was the store manager, the tool department manager would be in my office explaining why this happened.

My thought exactly! It has been on display for at least several weeks.

Chances are they only have one and somewhere in shipping or storage the box got wet. I don't know if they have much of a choice to put it on display. They don't seem to send stuff back and leaving it in a box isn't going to sell it. I would have someone use some scotchbrite to clean the rust off of it.

Am I the only one who was confused what a Politically Correct bandsaw was?

If it is anything like the rest of PC tools since they got bought out it is way overpriced. Piece of Crap is very applicable.

I coat all my saw tables with Johnson floor wax. They do not rust. I coat many of my tools with it.

This was at Lowes, not Lowell's.
