Vector Professional Circular polisher and time savings

[xfire]

Has anyone tried this polisher? I am in the market for a rotary, but the $70.00 price tag makes me worried that I won't be getting a good product. Here is a link for more info:

Also, how much time is really saved when using a rotary in comparison to a PC 7424 when polishing out swirls, scratches, etc...? I want a rotary simply because some people have said that it saves a lot of time (with the right experience, of course). My customer cars are taking way too long to fully detail using the PC, and it is also requiring too much polishing steps.

I'd save some money and buy one from Harbor Freight. This model for $25 is (I believe) the same as the Vector:

They also have a new version out with a bail handle for a few dollars more:

Here is a thread from a member who recently used the Harbor Freight rotary (the first one I linked to):
