I bought my Jet mini about in March of '07 on Amazon and paid $189 with free shipping. I was showing some pens to a guy at work and he seemed interested in getting a lathe. Told me the next day the Jet mini was $400. He didn't believe what I paid for mine and I didn't believe him on the price. I just looked and he's right. I'm an accountant and know our maintenance staff has been complaining about the price of steel going up 50% but this seems strange. Anybody know what is going on?
I sent him to Craft supplies USA since their price is $249 which is about the same as it was when I got my "deal" at Amazon.
Just wondering
