That was a good deal IMHO. I got mine for $300 2 years ago with Jointer and Jigsaw. I love the Mark VII and use it more than the other two Mark V's I have.

I love the features that it has....but was hesitant initially to pick one up.(The reported difficulties). But with already having other Mark V's and the OPR (Older Version) I don't think this one wiell get worn out to quickly. Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.
