Just FYI, these still haven't shipped from last time posted maybe a week and a half ago.
I think they're all behind and really shouldn't be having sales on products that they can't reliably ship on time.

Just got a shipment confirmation email yesterday from them for the one I ordered 5/4 with this promo. FedEx says it'll be here Friday. Pretty solid deal if you don't mind the 3 week wait. But it looks like they are shipping as they get in inventory.

I just received the 2x battery pack today. At first glance I was surprised that these 5AH batteries are the same size/dimensions as the 3AH battery I had at home. I cut open the package to look closer and noticed that one of the batteries was damaged. The yellow plastic tab on the top of battery (the part that slides securely into a tool/charger) broke and it's bent out of alignment. Does anyone know if Acme Tools is good with customer service?

I just placed an order today, knowing I will have to wait a while to get them...

A little concerned the shopping card had 2 line items, the saw and the promo free batteries. However, my order confirmation email only had the saw kit, no mention of the promo free batts.

Anyone else take a look at their order confirmation for me? diadilus?

Thanks!

Just a quick note, I was disappointed with ACME tools, hopefully they let me cancel my order, the promo batts didn't end up on the order. They were in shopping cart...

anyway, hopefully Home Depot will get some in stock before promotion ends.

Kind of disappointed in makita on this. Their authorized dealers should be able to get their systems in place and be ready when promos start, instead we have to go hunt for someone who has their stuff figured out and has inventory. Probably just dropped shipped from makita anyway.
