Powernut.com (Sean Ackerman) has Powermatic 3520B for $2960 plus "free shipping" which means $150 if you have one of those weird houses that does not have an unloading dock. :)

Does anyone know if I can get a better price somewhere else?

Thanks,
Alex
 
I can't say, but toolnut usually has the most competitive price. And they treat you very well!!

Cheers

I just bought one a couple months back from Sean service was great from the time i asked for the quote to just two weeks ago when they called just to see if everything was ok.I looked very hard and even went to a few local places for pricing and nobody came close.As for the shipping I just looked at 1 of the national stores there asking 3399.00 + $230 for liftgate delivery so even with the shipping I think you can't go wrong.
 
I just bought one from a dealer about 30 miles away and brought it home in my pickup, paid 3100 and tax brought it up to about 3400.... stinking tax man.

I took it out in pieces and put together in shop. Get a couple of High School foot ball players if you can to do the heavy lifting..

If you can buy out of state and beat the tax man, you can save some money but in my area, the trucker only brings it to the back of the truck and then you have to take over.. which is one of the reasons I bought locally... unloading from my pickup wasn't too bad..:confused:

Good luck Joe G.
