Hmmm, I just checked their website. The price of the Flex is $265, but there's no mention of a free bottle of SIP or 106FF. At the bottom of the Flex page, you can add them (as well as others) to your order and receive an additional 5% off of the checked items, but I didn't see anything saying free.

If you were able to order it with the free polish for $265 plus shipping, you got a great deal!

See the thread from Detail University that was linked earlier in this thread. If you pay $299 you get the "free" polish. $265 is just for the machine. If you were planning on getting the polish anyway though it's still a good deal (essentially $34 for a $50 polish).

But, technically, it's not really "free" then.

I guess to get that answer 100% is e-mail Greg or George @ DI.com

Hence the quotation marks . . . anyway when the price of the machine at DI was $299 the polish was a freebie. However, they've changed the price of the machine to $265. So, now the machine and polish is more of a kit than a freebie. Either way, it's still a good deal.

I'd mised the DU link and had gone only to the website. $299 (special for November only) for the machine and either SIP or 106FF is a really good deal.

They also have a really nice write-up on the machine. I am so looking forward to trying out the Flex ... now just for the weather to cooperate.

Re: Flex XC 3401 VRG Review w/ Pics

how much more power does the flex offer over the PC/UDM percentage wise? 30, 40, 50%? also what are your pros and cons on this vs. the PC/UDM? thanks...

Woot! Just ordered my Flex today! Along with 450 dollars worth of stuff! So pumped!

The PC maxes at 6000obm. The flex maxes at 9600obm. so...inbetween 30 and for 40 percent more powerful if i'm not mistaken.
