She gets the promotion and works tons of overtime and I get the new toys. Hmm, I guess I better send her to have a massage or something.

I know what you mean I did a side job gave her some of the money and the rest im buying a rotary and a backing plate so i can use my pc pads

same guy on ebay

I`m glad you were satisfied with it

its a very good price

Yeah, I think I`ll be happy with it. I`m contemplating selling my B&D to my brother in law so that I can still see it from time to time. I`ll wait `til the Hitachi comes and see if I like it or not.

The customer service was very good as they were helpful with any questions I had. I haven`t gotten a tracking number yet but I`ll give them `til next week for that. I ended up just calling them and placing the order instead of using the online auction.

Even if it does youÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ll probably want to get one from your favorite pad supplier anyway.

I Took back my Harbor Freight unit and got my money back. I wish their was a tool store where I could go in and see the different machines everyone is talking about. Its hard buying stuff over the net unless you are SURE about your purchase. Gary

Gary, check out the Hitachi site and you may find something close to you and check it out.

The response time on that post was incredible. Thanks SpoiledMan, they have Lowes listed, that`s right by my house. I`ll go there on Tues. Gary

Would`ve been done sooner but I copied the wrong link the first time. I`m also excited about having another new polisher around. My PC might be on borrowed time.
