    Milwaukee 2 1/4 HP Router #5616-20 $59?!

    Have just been notified by the vendor:
    Unfortunately, the item you have ordered was priced incorrectly on our website and has been fixed immediately.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Cordless Drills Customer Service
    Now I will go and see how to delete this post, it was worth a try, I guess, even though I have a headache now.
    ORIGINAL POST:
    These are normally around $175. I don't know how this could be. But I ordered one! Keep waiting for an email or phone call telling me that it's incorrect. Shipping is 12.95. Here's the link:
    http://cordless-drills.net/index.asp...OD&ProdID=2887
    There was not much info on their site about the router, if you want more info on it, look anywhere on the web for this model or look here: http://www.tylertool.com/mi562maxhpev.html If I hear anymore to the contrary on this great price or if I get it and it's not what it says it is...I will let you know ASAP. Keep in mind that this website charges 30% restock fee, but if they have incorrectly advertised their product, it would be ill advised of them to do so. ('Nuff said.)

      Dunno, but I ordered two - my boss wants one, too and said he'd make it worth my while... if they ship them. Wait and see.

          Well, I'm in for one of these. Already have the big brother Milwaukee and it is an awesome powerhouse of a machine. I have been looking for a deal on the body grip Milwaukee for a while. I hope these ship.

            Absolutely! Ordered one for a friend too! I had the smaller single speed 5615 and loved it....had to sell to finance the bigger 5625 but I really miss the BodyGrip.....the 5616 with VS is the way to go.

            Thanks for posting this.

                  Too bad it's not like Walmart, where they honor the rung up price! I was afraid of this. I'm really Sorry! For myself especially!

                      Well, I feel really bad about gettig everyone's hopes up, but I did wonder... From now on I guess I'd better wait till I get my ship notice. I just didn't want anyone to miss out on it, but you did anyway, didn't you? And what makes it worse is that I can't find out HOW TO DELETE THIS POST! And there are some things too good to be true- I am one of them!!! (Except for this once in a lifetime flub!)

                        Well, no big deal - no money lost. At least I learned one thing I didn't know before: there's a girl in these forums!

                            No harm done, and there was some possible benefit! Don't think twice about it...you did no wrong, and it was fun while it lasted!

                              Exactly, sometimes it not the kill that feels great, but the thrill of the hunt. Now if it was $59 and you ordered it and got the "out of stock" message, that's a reason for real depression, followed by copious amounts of your favorite beverage.
