This offer has been available a while on other sites but major retailers haven't had them in stock and this is the first time I've seen it on Amazon. Comes with the plunge saw and 2pk 5ah batteries. You'll need to buy tracks and a battery charger if you don't have one.

This is a great deal. If you wait for the " + Track + Case + Batteries " deal the other comments are speaking of you will need a time machine to get back to 2019.
Some are ...ummm.. denser than the lumber they are cutting.
...it's on amazon.

I think you can get much better deal around bf…with track and case for about the same price.

Tool Nut has Makita deals going on now; however, I would wait until case(s), batteries, charger, and a guide rail are in the bundle.

Hoping the SP6000J corded version goes back on sale. Just can't bring myself to adopt another battery type.

Yep, this is an alright deal if you've already got Makita 18V stuff, considering these don't go on sale super often. I scored a pretty good deal on mine - $470 shipped for saw + charger + 4 batteries + 55+39" rail... but that was back in 2019 as you noted. Lately the deals have been much less hot on these saws.

You CAN NOT hack this by returning the batteries to Home Depot. Ive tried it at multiple locations with no luck.
