This seems to be going in and out of stock, but a good deal when using doing the return/don't pick up the batteries option.

Additionally, HD pro accounts have the option to cancel the batteries separately so you don't have to deal with the hack. Do some searching around SD for more info on Home Depot hackables.

Most of time it has been out of stock at Homedepot. Now I wish I didn't bite on the Milwaukee deal at $300 --M18 is a great tool, but an overkill for DIY. While Makita is also an overkill, its price is much more forgiving to you know who.

Home & Home Improvement Tools Makita Home Depot

Product Description:	The Makita 18-Volt X2 (36V) LXT Brushless 6-1/2 in Plunge Circular Saw Kit (XPS01Z, tool only, batteries and charger sold separately) delivers precise and more accurate cutting when combined with an optional guide rail system (sold separately). The saw and rail system work together to produce accurate cuts with minimal tear-out. The saw combines a powerful Makita-built brushless motor powered by two 18-Volt LXT batteries with automatic speed change technology, which adjusts cutting speed and torque during the cut for optimum performance. The saw has a variable speed control dial (2,500 - 6,300 RPM), with soft start and an electric brake for added convenience. It has a large 2-3/16 in cutting capacity at 90°, with a bevel capability of -1 to 48 and positive stops at 22.5 and 45. When used with a rail system (sold separately) the plunge circular saw is a more portable option to a table saw for select applications, and is ideal for use on the job site or in a workshop. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created star protection computer controls. Star protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18-Volt LXT and compact lithium-ion batteries with the star symbol indicating star protection inside.
