"But honey, I only paid $269.00 for this! On SALE it's normally at best $583.99!" Not that this statement is going to do me any good. I absolutely LOVE overstock/closeout sales!!!!! I feel like I stole this one as the supplier said he can't even replace it for this price.

Good score!
Nice folks at Mann. Wish they were closer or work took me to Columbia more often.

BTW...I found a few "Scratch and Dent" sanders like these at General Industrial Supply in Nashville, TN a few weeks ago if anyone is in the market and lives nearby. http://www.generalindustrial.com/ They are a Jet/Wilton/Powermatic clearance outlet in addition to being a Rockler affiliate.

The guys at Mann tool are great. It's hard to walk in that place and not leave spending more dough than you had planned!

Yep, Jimbo is a buddy of mine. I have a Jet OSS10 and a 12" Disc sander that he found for me. A little touch up paint and better than new. He sends a truck to Knoxville every week and will arrange for you to meet the truck at a dock and a $10 tip to the driver will transfer it to your truck. Beats paying big bucks for freight.
