    Bosch 1617EVSPK $150 with accessories

    My dad saw these at a Costco in the DFW area. Its this router and comes with the edge guide as well.

    Great deal. I have been waiting for a good price on a router and this is it!

    See if he has a number (sku) for it on the receipt. My local one didn't have them as of two days ago, and I normally, rarely use Costco (they don't carry a bunch of stuff the other club store does locally, that work uses). This would make it worth going to, if I find out they are coming.

      I've never seen any really good deals at my local Costcos on the tools that they have.

        Avaserfi, thanks for the post. "DFW = ?

        Grant, just in case you come back and post that your's did have them, could you mention where your "local" Costco is.

        This info helps dramatically as, long time bt3'ers can attest, not all Lowes, Borgs, and Costco's have the same stuff or same sales.

        Thanks,
        Greg

          DFW= Dallas Fort Worth? That is what I always thought.

            Yup. That's what I read it as.

            If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

              Thanks Grant. I won't be making the trip to your Costco even if they offer them for free.

                It won't do you any good anyway. There are none here. I had stopped to fill up my truck and decided to have a look. Not to be found. I was considering that variable speed Hatachi deal. I need a variable speed router, or at least would like one. I sort of accomplish what I want with my router speed control on my old Makita. But I might just bite if I could find the Bosch with all the attachments.

                  Sorry it took me so long to reply. DFW is Dallas Fort Worth I am pretty sure he got it at the Costco in East Plano off of Central.

                  I called him up and got the item number he said the number on the reciept was 946503 with an exact price of $149.97. Hope this clears things up...

                    Thank you!

                    With that, we may be able to find out if it is specific to a local, or if it is a coming spring thing (mine gets the tools around then).

                      Ok I'm not quite sure how they do their pricing at Costco. But when I was there today I saw a Makita 7pcs. Kit that at another Costco (the one I usually shop at) was nearly $200 more. Where this one http://www.amazon.com/Makita-LXT700-.../dp/B000V2FRC8 was roughly $460. Anyone know if Costco pricing varies by area? This other store that I usually shop at has not had a deal that I've seen, where this one today had a price I might have gone for (and made the switch to Li-Ion) when I was needed batteries for my 14.4 a few weeks ago.
