I've been needing to upgrade from some pretty worthless tools to ones I can actually use and found a deal on a Craftsman Professional 10" hybrid table saw and 6" jointer with the 48" bed. I don't know the model numbers off hand so this may be a short post, but I've looked at them and can tell they've been used by someone that cared for and took care of his tools. The previous owner was a retired Craftsman rep so his shop was all top-of-the-line Craftsman. His son is asking $1100 for the two tools and all accessories, which I thought was pretty steep, but the jointer comes with several sets of knives and the saw comes with 30-something blades, at least 7 different dado sets, wobble blades, various jigs, etc. All the blades are in good shape and the ones that aren't 'new' have the date they were sharpened written on them. He's also throwing in some random 'stuff' from the shop - new/unused ball bearing drawer slides, fishing rods, a box of door knobs, deadbolts and other hardware, etc.
The son is trying to sell them for his mother so she can sell the place, but they aren't in any hurry. I looked at them almost a year ago and walked away, but they won't budge on the $1100 even now. The difference today is my lovely bride is tired of excuses and is ready for some new furniture and wants to buy them for my birthday. Question is, is this a fair asking price?
