    Yes agree price is all relative to individuals be it for business or recreational use

    I just finished a job for a client who bought a new Aston Martin DB11 which are over $500,000
    He was telling me about the options list and the crazy prices
    To change the colour of the thread used for the hand stitched seats was 3 grand and there is a crystal clock option that is $30,000
    It is beautiful car though

    Yes there is price competition on Festool items.
    I have just bought a Systainer. I know it might sound crazy but I like to keep parts together.
    One dealer, the website showed $ 105 + $14 delivery. Another dealer $ 102 + Free delivery.
    Guess which one I ordered from.

    Many years ago I bought the OF 1010 router. The plunge movement felt very stiff. Spoke to the selling dealer (Forum Sponsor) and they arranged pick up and return for a warranty repair. Found a couple of possible manufacture faults. So it was an additional week before I could use it, but I have not had any trouble since. Yes it was more than other similar routers, but in the right circumstances I can work virtually shaving free when connected to the dust extractor.

    PS I have forgotten what I paid for my Festool gear, but I enjoy using it.

    If I was in business making furniture the first thing I would buy would be two Dominoes, not being in business I won't even buy one.
