Freud Router Gloat!!

[Russell Tribby]

I stopped by my local Lowes to see what their price was on the Freud router plunge and fixed base kit since I knew it was on clearance. Turns out it was marked down to $40!!!!! I couldn't grab it fast enough. I didn't really need another router but how could I pass on it for $40?

[Gregg Feldstone]

Was it a returned or reconditioned unit?

[Russell Tribby]

Nope. Brand new in the case, marked down to $40.

Tribby,

That deserves a big "you suck". I thought that I had scored a deal when I paid $79.00 for the display model. No case, no wrench, and no 1/4" collet. But for $79.00 I couldn't pass it up.

[Russell Tribby]

Jim, I happily and humbly accept your "you suck".

[Gary Redden]

Never have enough routers. Congratulations on the awesome deal

That's half price of a great deal....making it pretty incredible! I really like that router (http://www.epinions.com/review/Freud_FT1700VCEK_2_1_4_Horsepower_Variable_Speed_F ixed_Base_Router/content_228357738116) in my router table. Hope it serves you well!

Yup...that's a gloat...and like clamps, you can never have too many...well... LOL :D :D :D

Are the Freuds on clearance at all the Lowes?
