$122.50 plus $15 shipping!

I figured that the weight of the Makita was about a pound more than the Metabo, but still two pounds less than the DeWalt or the Milwaukee, and about the same as the Hitachi. The extra pound wasn't worth $100. The Makita is a really well regarded tool, and the Hitachi is a relative newcomer, so for the same price I got the Makita.
