Thanks for the link. I couldn't pass it up. If I don't like it, I'm sure I can get my money back and then some on Craigslist!

$70 is still better than $80 but I wouldn't exactly say they're selling it half off.

I would like to note that while browsing the aisles at HD this evening I saw this same gun for $80, not on sale or clearance.

Hmmm... Someone tell me why I need one!

I know. I was just saying that I wish they would have given the radio charging capabilities and had the price between $119-$149.

I could do without Bluetooth but I wish this could charge batteries and be at a $119.99-149.99 price point.

I am a big Fuel fan and was looking at the 2781, but I can't imagine it having a great run time for surface grinding saw joints and around drains/clean outs on the job. No cord is nice, but having to have a shop vac for dust collection means I have a cord anyway so it defeats the purpose IMO. Would be pretty slick for cutting Tile though.

Thanks for your feedback Dwain. I think I will be picking up the Milwaukee 6117-33!

Yes, I will definitely be picking up a dust shroud for grinding.

Well I only ask because I'm torn between this grinder and the Milwaukee 5" 6117-33. I'm a Milwsukee guy at heart but I really like the slimmer handle on the Bosch. Hmmmm

Anyone have one? How do you like it? This is in the running with the Bosch AG40-85 for the grinder I pick up. It will mostly be used for cutting tile and surface grinding concrete. Can you use 4 1/2" wheels, blades, etc on 5" grinders safely?

Yeah, they're pretty popular here in the US. Is it safe to use 4 1/2" wheels, blades, etc in a 5" grinder? 4 1/2" stuff is way more readily available than 5".

Anyone have one? How do you like it? Looking at getting a new grinder and this one caught my eye. Will be used mostly for cutting tile and surface grinding concrete.

I just stick with a torch

I'll second Whiteside bits and to buy them as you go. Don't get a cheap set, you will regret it.

I put one of these on my xmas list but I may have to end up picking it up myself

I couldn't help myself as I was working about 15 minutes away from that Lowe's today. Just over $450 out the door with the extra 5% my Lowe's card takes off. Not too keen on the stand so I may sell it and upgrade to the rolling one.

So you just walk in and ask someone to give you 10% off an online item?

Are you referring to when you order something at Home Depot that they don't carry in stock?

I don't know if it's just locally but online it shows that you can get it for $449.10. I would pick it up if it wasn't a two hour round trip to my nearest Lowe's and they don't offer free shipping.

Added a few hand tools today!

I knew I should have bought one when they first came out! Now I will have to wait until they go on sale somewhere!

I know Oh well

OF COURSE I GOT CURLY FRIES! + a French dip I'm happy I got my money back...but I would have been more happy if I would have gotten a $500 kit for less than $100!

So they definitely screwed up because they refunded me the $73.30! They didn't contact me though.
