I just got one.

It should come in handy for... umm...

OK I was just bored and for less than $17 (with shipping) surely I'll find something to do with it... right?

I gotta stop reading the Bargain Alerts.

I was just looking through the "Closeout" section of the website. This saw is listed as $99.99 (reduced from $149). When you click on it, the price is $9.99 instead.

I guess we'll see what happens.

The blades have been discontinued. So what do you do for blades when you need more?

[John Maddalla]

Throw it out? I mean it was only 10 bucks.

Looks like they corrected the error. It's now back up to 99.99

Wonder if they're gonna honor the 9.99 price for those who already ordered it.

I just bought one...

What if it is a mistake and it really is supposed to be $99.00? Will they verify the cost before they process the payment? It's not worth $99 to me, but I am sure I can find a use for it at $9.99...

[newbie2wood]

The saw is still $9.99 on the website. I'm tempted but I can't seem to find a use of it.

Still alive! Folks at SD have found another way to order it at $9.99. I've updated the original post of this thread.

[mpauly]

In for one at $9.99. We'll see if it goes through at $17 shipped.
