[Brian Palmer]

Orderd 2 for that price LOL! WOW

[Steve Vaughan]

Wow! Well, it should come as no surprise. Someone recently posted about how the cost of lathes had gone up!

[Steve Schlumpf]

Gosh.... maybe I should sell mine instead of keeping it for finials!

[charlie knighton]

since its used , fair price 8k, Steve

[Jim Burr]

1642-2 for 10k? Really?...wow. Sears and Screwbuck

[Jacob Muldowney]

It looks like the typo monster got them. To be fair it is not sold by Sears but by CPO Outlets. 80% of the stuff on sears.com is not actually sold by sears. They are just trying to be amazon. Craftsman is now Middleman lol.

You know, it really is sad! I remember eons ago when I was a kid, one of the most interesting places to go when we went to Houston was the tool department at the Crosstimbers store. They always had power tools set up that they would demo while you watched. No questions warranty. I have a couple of my first power tools that I purchased in the late '60s. A power saw and a router. Both still work today, but dadgummit, they had some plastic on them.

[John Fabre]

I wonder if it ships for free.

[Bill Wyko]

Are you sure that's not for a bakers dozen?

[Jake Helmboldt]

John, not for free, but only $6.99, so darn close to free. That makes a big difference! Too bad I already have a 1642.

[Bill White]

Those people (Sears) have lost their collective minds.

Have I lost something in translation? Sorry, but how much is one of these worth? When I click on the link it comes up as £516.66 GBP, which converts online to $796.74..... Are you saying they're too expensive, or too cheap?

I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice that.....

There is somwthing wrong with their pricing system. I have been watching a Jet disc sander and it was at $449 and then all of a sudden it went to $2295. It would not surprise me if Sears did not contract to a tool, paint and appliance store. Dump the clothes and housewares. They need a new identity and have to differentiate themselves from the competition.
