Jet 1220 vs lathe

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well the time is drawing near. I want to buy a Jet 1220 vs lathe and was waiting for some big sale. Looks like nothing is coming. The best I see it is basically $545 in all places. Woodcraft sweetens the pot with free shipping till end of Sept. which is about $30. Jet offeres a rebate of $25 till end of the year. My question is has anyone heard any better deals now or in the future???

John ..... yes to Amazon. But with one added tip ...... keep going to Amazon and searching repeatedly for it. I mean like over a period of two to three weeks. I bought my Delta 46-715 at Amazon. It's list price was $1200 and Amazon's price was something like $750. Everyday, just sort of out of habit, I would check at Amazon for the latest price. It stayed at 750. Then, after about three weeks of going back and back and back to Amazon .... it suddenly appeared at $350 with free shipping. I bought it immediately.
Amazon tracks your searches and then, in my case anyway, hit me with a one day sale. Maybe you'll get lucky!
 
Check with woodcraft or rockler if you have a local store. They have regular tool and vendor sales. I think I paid about $475 for my 1220vs when jet was first introducing them.

Yes I have been checking Amazon but they are not even listing the 1220VS. I hesitated when they first came out and missed the best pricing looks like. Will keep watching until the end of Sept then will probably go with Woodcraft's deal. If I can wait that long
