Makita 9227 works great for me. I love their unique wrap around bail handle. No other polisher can compare to that. ...

The PC 7428 and the Flex LK 603VVB look suspiciously similar. | |

Strangely enough, the 7428 was manufactured by PC’s then European subsidiary, Flex.

The PC 7428 used to sell for around $200 through the discounters but was disco’ed when Black & Decker absorbed Porter-Cable. There were killer deals on them back when they were blowing out the residual stock. A number of guys got them for under a hundred bucks before the supply dried up.
Black & Decker got Flex in the Porter-Cable deal but didn’t want them so Flex spun off as an independent company and now has their own distribution network.

Found a great deal/have a good deal on it? PM me.
Looking at you, Chris (eshine).
