DWS780 is on sale now for $349 + Free Shipping. from Home Depot.

https://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWAL.../202922350

It seems Amazon Price Matched (Thank senkris)(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...UTF8&psc=1 ) Plus you could get $25 off and Discover 5% discount.
Amazon stock availability keeps changing. OOS for a while and back in stock then OOS again. You might want to keep checking.

I was checking the previous frontpage deal, but did not buy it because someone told the modification on DWS779 might void warranty.(https://slickdeals.net/f/13562242-dewalt-15-amp-12-in-double-bevel-sliding-compound-miter-saw-dws779-rolling-stand-dwx726-for-399?page=10#commentsBox)

Now Home Depot has a special buy for DWS780 with $349 price, so I combined with Ridgid Miter Saw Stand (https://slickdeals.net/f/13641289-ridgid-universal-mobile-miter-saw-stand-with-mounting-braces-99-free-shipping?src=frontpage)

Cheaper (considering modification cost) and no worry for warranty.

Quote from jeff34270 :
I bought this top of the line DeWalt a few years back because I thought it would be the end-all-be-all of miter saws, but I was mistaken. It has a monster cut capacity, but that also makes it very large and heavy. And all the moving parts combined with the heavy motor introduce a lot of slop where the blade hits the wood. That's not a problem for framing or floating floors, but I would never use this saw for things that need to be accurate. The old fixed 10" $100 Delta Shopmaster that this was supposed to replace does a much better job on accurate miters.

Unless you absolutely need the huge cut capacity of a 12" slider, I'd keep what you have or look elsewhere. If you do need this large of a cut and are aware of this saw's drawbacks, this is a great price for a beast of a saw.

Or whip out that caulking and some elbow grease.

Between molding, stairs, framing, etc. there's never been an accuracy issue that a touch up couldn't fix.

Sorry to hear that. I just added the LED upgrade for the 779 a few days ago, and haven't had any issues. It's a bit tricky getting all of the wires to nest for a tight fit on the handle, but I am very happy with result! Happy chopping.

Does your light turn off when you engage the saw blade? If so does it automatically turn back on when you release the trigger?

Right now it looks like it's gone again, but it did that to me earlier, I just kept checking back and it popped up again.

From what I understand you can lock the sliding mechanism to make it sturdier as well as using a 10" blade (with a bit of wood under the cut to make up the difference) to further cut down on slop.

I have my DWS780 on the way, and a Makita 10" blade I got from an Amazon deal to try this on. Obviously not an experienced woodworker here but did a lot of forum research into ways to make this more stable for smaller cuts.

When the switch for the shadow light is in the on position, the light should stay on the whole time, until the switch is turned off.

Slopping everything with caulking defeats the purpose doesn't it? I'm looking for clean cuts and accuracy

This kind of ticks me off. I know my local stores still have them in stock; they're just terrible at keep their database updated so the website always shows the wrong quantities. Since the store is closed until 6am tomorrow when they re-open, I can't visit to pick one up. I'm guessing the sale ends tonight as well.

Home Depot just fixed the glitch! I can order for store delivery now! The Wife is going to be mad... lol. Confirmed, I'll have a new saw Dec 5-10th at my local store. $382.16 with taxes included.

Had everything in cart this AM but got distracted and now can't order. Do I have to arrive at HD by 6AM tomorrow to get one? Do they have lines like BestBuy?
