Is it just me or are these people nuts?

This Delta tenon jig sold for $272 on the "bay"! :eek:

The item description; DELTA ROCKWELL TENONING JIG IS EASY TO USE AND IS VERY HEAVY. APPROX 45 LBS. THIS UNIT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH ORIGINAL PAINT. CAN BE MOUNTED ON YOUR TABLE SAW AND PUT TO WORK RIGHT OUT OF THE SHIPPING CARTON.

Its a sad statement when tools start getting worse instead of better.:(
This is not the only example of this tools getting worse due to cost cuts and outsourcing.

As others have stated, there is NO COMPARISON between that model, and the one I bought (new model) about 4 yrs ago. I wish mine was like that, and that one sure looks "Cherry".

I have been watching the Unisaw and parts on Ebay and it seems all the older parts and pieces are bringing high prices. Glad I have almost everything for mine.

I have this version, it's a great piece. I'd gladly pay $300 to replace mine. I am always amazed at the crap people buy today just to be able to buy new...joe
