SysLite DUO just posted.

'bout time someone bought the CT 36.  I was waiting for the DUO to come back up after they moved it out of the queue yesterday just after I decided I wanted it. :)

This morning started with at least a DTS-400 and a CXS-Plus (not set).

As of this writing, Dust Extractor CT 26 E HEPA CLEANTEC is posted.

There must be more than one, because I just grabbed one for myself and it's still up.

Does anyone know what else is on the list for the day? Sometimes they give you a preview but I haven't found that screen/option for the last several weeks.  [sad]

Note, too, that the "Wow, that went fast!!!" is after the DTSC and before the OF 1010.  That means the OF 1010 and other items after it may not actually see the light of day today.

For whatever reasons the CT 15 and the CT 48 have consistently been 15% off for the past 4 months. Other Dust Extractors are the more usual 25% off.

The other noteworthy exceptions to the usual 25% is the Planex (which is typically 50%, but sometimes only 40%) and more recently the OS 400 which has been going for 40% off. Also for unknown reasons we also see the random non-usual discount (e.g. the TSC 55 is usually 25% off, but has also been listed for 10%, 20%, and 30% off at times)

                  -- Bob

And they are down to a 15% discount now.

I think it still depends on the item.  The other tools in the "collection" are still 25%, and most of the postings I've seen lately have also been 25%.

The CT 48's accessories/consumables and shipping are both pretty pricey; I wouldn't be completely surprised if 15% is all they have left in a CT 48, or maybe it's even a brand new return rather than previously used (although we haven't really seen that sort of differentiation before).

This spring the drywall gun DWC 18-4500 was 50% off ($570 for $285) so I nabbed it.  I was pleasantly surprised when I saw both 5.2 batteries were Bluetooth.   Wish they had more deals like this.

$365.25. Current retail is $475, so it was 25% off.

Lucky for me it was still cached on my phone's browser, since I don't have a script running to track it (though I could and should and might in the future).

Either someone's up working late, or someone's up shopping late, because the Trion and TS 55 are both gone from the list and we're at the "Wow, that was fast!!!"

OF 1010 likely kicks off the morning tomorrow, but I've also seen them move items around in the list at 5 AM before releasing the floodgates.  I have a sneaking suspicion I'm not the only one going after the 1010 tomorrow, so it could be an interesting Thursday.

Good luck tomorrow Squall.  I scored mine earlier this year.  I do not remember the exact items, but do remember this spring seeing 5 items move through Recon in 30 minutes. 

I wonder what the hottest items are in order?  I assume Dominos then maybe vacuum clamps and the router lineup?

Thanks!

Saw it was live at 0515 CDT, pulled the trigger, it was still up (and is still up almost 30 minutes later), so there must be more than one available.

Next is a CT 36, then a Kapex, then a TXS Set, PS420 Carvex, Syslite Duo (mine from two days ago still hasn't shipped),  Cordless Vecturo, Planex with CT 36 AC set, and finally a CT 48

Happy hunting!

I think yesterday was the first time that I received something from Recon that was obviously a retail return, because the systainer had corporate logos on it.  Interesting...

In any case, this morning, for the last hour or so, Suction-Based Clamping Pump VAC-PMP has been posted.  This is the pump only, for the VAC-SYS clamping system.  An oddity, for sure, since the pump itself is a tough way to get started in the system unless you already have other clamps or need a new pump.



Suction-Based Clamping Pump VAC-PMP is up.
