For all the PC fans out there, Amazon has the Porter-Cable 390K 5-inch Low Profile Random Orbit Sander for $94.56. Thats the lowest price I've seen on that sander and its a much better sander than the latest version of the PC343 IMO.

That is a great price for this sander. I love mine (once I got used to fact that it's apparently designed for very large hands). -
Just noticed that the price has dropped a little bit more ... now $85.34, sweet!Last edited by Spuds; 06-04-2009, 06:54 PM.Comment

FYI, they are down to $85 now. I ordered one at $94 and it came in yesterday. I had SWMBO call them today(Friday) and we now have a $10 credit. EVEN HAPIER.

Got mine the other day, very happy with this purchase and the sander. I really like the pad brake so you can put it down without waiting and also that its has a brushless motor for higher efficiency and no brush maintenance, very nice indeed.Comment

$81 now - how low will it go?GaryComment

I'm guessing that's about the bottom ... its already about $50 lower than it was a couple of months ago when it began its decline in price, my guess is that it will bounce around at this price within a a couple of bucks for a short while and then go back up to whatever new price they decided. Then again amazon is a a strange beast to figure out!
Noticed the pc343 is now $39.04, while not in the same class as the 390, at that price its stupid cheap.Comment

Might have to jump on this myself. One of my young dogs ate the dust bag assembly on my ROS today. Looking like a good time to upgrade.

$77 this morning. I had to go for it since I need a replacement for my 10 year old 333 anyway.Comment

Back up to $129 ... hope everyone that was thinking about this one got in on the deal while it lasted !Last edited by Spuds; 06-21-2009, 08:06 PM.Comment

Glad I got in when I did.
I was expecting Spuds recent post to say it was < $60. That's usually how things work for me.

talking about sanders. i have almost given up the idea of dust collection on my bosch 1295VS sander. (i bought the hose and the adapters, had awful whistling problem, cut the hose length, now slight whistle, but still lots of dust at source.)
other than festool 150/3, is there a middle ground on an ideal ROS with dust collection.
thanks!Comment
