[James Hart]

Just checked Amazon on the PC 690 router and 343 sander offer, price jumped up $50 to $139.

It still shows as $86.99 to me. It's so very tempting...

[James Hart]

Peter,

Try going to the page and hit the refresh button on your browser. I know they are sometimes serving up different prices somehow, but there's a chance you're seeing the page that your computer cached from a previous visit.

Still $86.99 just a few seconds ago. All pages refreshed.

[James Hart]

I just went back out there and now it's $87 again. Go figure.

[Rick Gifford]

I swear last night it was $82.99. I dunno whats going on over there!

[Stan Welborn]

Shows $84 for me now, but no free sander.

Yeah, I just checked, it is now down to $84 but they removed the free sander off which is ridiculous, I checked last night and it said that the offer was valid until 12/31.....

[Bob Durgin]

It showed the sander was free last night. They both show out of stock with Amazon today, but in stock with other suppliers. Maybe that is why the sander no longer shows up for free.

[James Hart]

I just went out there......$86.99 and the free sander is still showing on my page even after refreshing...if you're thinking about it, the promo code is FREE343K, order and try it.

Hey James, Do you think you may have accidentally clicked on the variable speed version?

It's at $139 (w/no sander!)

I musta depleted the stock last night. ;)

Ok, now I am lost...

When I refresh the page, the deal doesn't show up. But, I had added the items to my cart last night, it showed the deal and the total was showing up at $86.99. Now, I can still go into my cart, I get the free sander, but the total shows up at $99.99, I still am not sure if I am going to pull the trigger...

Thats common for amazon to raise and lower the prices.
Just keep an eye on it. It may or may not drop back down

Mike,

I don't think so, but it sure is possible.

Found the deal again, but it's out of stock and $99 now

[Dick Aubochon]

Still available, but out of stock. For that price I can wait.....order placed.

Another unordered router here, I just tried the promo code (FREE343K) with the Amazon router at 99.99 and the timberline tools router at 84.99, and both times the error message said the code was not valid. Perhaps I have the wrong code, but it seems it is off the table.

I ordered this deal a few weeks ago for $84, or thereabouts, and was very impressed with the free 343k sander. I did an entire cabinet order using just that sander. I put my dewalts and faithful old makita on the shelf and the little 343k just did its thing on all that wood.

So I wanted to go back and get another one of these amazing deals and couldn't find it. But thanks to you Stan, I clicked your link I got another steal of a good router and a fine sander for under a hundred bucks. As norm says, "You can never have too many clamps, or routers, or bits, or cordless drills, or wide belt sanders, etc...

And to think I almost dumped 440 for a festool. I realize those festools must be really nice because of all the drool puddles left in the forums, but I just got a free sander that does a completely satisfactory job. It's all you need though maybe not all you want.

All the festool guys keep saying that if you buy the festool stuff, you'll never go back to the "cheap" stuff.

I guess I'll never know.

I'll be forced to live in frugal/blissful ignorrance.

I think I'll take that 440 I almost blew on a tool I didn't need and blow it on a really nice Leupold VXIII scope for my varmint rifle. Now that's a necessity!

Jim... just in case you didn't know this (I didn't and was serious confused for about a half hour) you need to put both the router AND the sander in you shopping cart, and THEN at checkout it takes the code. If you just put the router in, and punch in the code, it gave me an error also.

Yep, I ordered another too Dennis. Not the best time of year to be unloading your wallet of an additional $100, but with the deal feeling like it was coming to a close I decided not to pass up the opportunity. Pus, with it looking like it wont ship till Jan sometime, it doesn't hurt yet. If it had been another time of year, I would have probably gotten 3. But, with Christmas, Kid's $5k braces, my root canal, new self opening vents under the house... my checking account is looking a tad anorexic
