Darn, no $25 off 100 anymore for Bosch.

Does this tool do the same things as the one in this ebay auction?

Yes, but this one is corded

The ebay one is cordless

Was debating on the 2, and just saw this went dead.

I have used the $20 model that Harbor Freight has, and it worked great.

What is so different about this Bosch that it costs 5x more?
More power/torque?? Longer lasting?? Different rpm??
Is the Harbor Freight one 60Hz and the Bosch 120Hz or 240Hz??

I've read so many good things about the HF one that I ran out and picked it up for about $40 - the variable speed one with the case and accessories. Sure enough, failed motor within 20 minutes. Maybe some people have some good ones, but I don't trust HF. There's issues with the bearings or brushes or whatever it is where you can trust a bosch to last you while a HF may easily fail on you.

the coupon is still live, but the product is not eligible.

I've bought 10+ power tools from Bosch and all have preformed excellently... I've bought maybe 8 tools from HF and 2 went back to HF after the first use, and only work moderately well. If you don't see yourself using a tool often or need it for a one-off project by all means save the money and go HF, but if you want straight lines time after time, and ample power, go Bosch/Milwaukee/Dewalt, etc...

Back again for $98..... I was waiting for it to go back down....... Just got one......
