At this point I'm picturing a giant Chinese freighter docked at a port here, laden with at least 10,000 of these Porter-Cable 6" jointers.

Does anyone do that? Raise a price or end a sale but still sell things at the previous, lower price if you ask?

A local Menard's told me once they don't price match, period, and got ticked at me for even asking. I wasn't shocked because that store has the worst customer service in the business, and Menard's is goofy with a lot of stuff. And of course this is the king of fine print we're talking about, with their BS advertised prices that reflect a rebate that isn't actually a rebate against the real price. I want to like Menard's because they have nice stores, but they make it hard.

Does anyone know whether or not Menards will price match their own deal from a few weeks ago?

Home Depot and Lowe's will both price match within a certain timeframe, to answer your question. Their sale from a few weeks ago was not as good as this one.

They'll price match themselves? Funny, Lowe's told me no the one time I asked, but that was a while ago.

And yes, this is the best price I've seen but I missed out again. I'll probably keep an eye on Craigslist and wait for a bigger used unit. I don't mind buying used, and I've seen some great deals on jointers there before.

This is a great deal. If you look up "6 inch benchtop jointer", everyone seems to be selling this exact jointer in different colors, Grizzly, Rikon, Shop Fox, Craftsman... Wen is the cheapest at $240 on Amazon before tax. Even adding shipping with Menards and their BS "Processing Fee", it's $100 cheaper than Wen. If I get the $12.36 rebate, not holding my breath, than my final cost will be $132.

Merchandise Subtotal: $112.35
Processing Fees: Processing Fees Information $2.80
Shipping Charges: $18.73
Sales Tax: $10.59
Total $144.47

Thanks and repped!

Grabbed it 20 minutes ago from Menards, about $145 all told, without rebate. About 285 miles to the nearest Menards, so the $16 shipping seemed pretty reasonable.

FYI there's an optional $5 "hide the box in another box" fee if you're worried about porch pirates.

Thanks. The deal was good enough with or without the rebate so I jumped. Being over 500 miles from the nearest Menards, looks like the rebate won't be worth much to me.

Don't forget the processing fee for the convenience of in store pick up. The way Menards nickel and dimes you is one of the reasons why I don't bother with them unless they are the cheapest. Don't get me started on their "rebate" nonsense.
