    If it's anywhere near the description, that's a steal! I paid $160 for mine and spent about $30 and many hours rehabing it. Still thought I made out great.

      Heck, if that thing is in good rebuildable shape, that is a steal...

        I want it, I need it, I have to have it, but there's no place to put it

        The new shop won't be occupancy-ready for three more months and in the meantime, we have furniture and tools stuffed into every available inch of space on our back patio and storage area.

        Besides, I can't imagine trying to move the thing.

          Shoot, store it at a friend's house! You'll regret you didn't get a $100 8" jointer, especially after you decided to get a 6", have to sell it and loose some money, then spend $700+ on an 8" jointer.

            You were definitely ripped off, Pappy. $190 for an 8" jointer? Larceny!!
