Deal Details
These are on clearance at my local home depot for 299, the only other depot around me that has stock also shows clearance, don't know what their price is though. They had a huge stack (BS shows 23 and 17 at the two stores around me). While this is a generic brand, it's awful cheap for a 24" 2 stage even if it needs some "adjusting" down the road.

I'm comfortable working on engines but it is the having to fabricate parts for everything but the engine as once you're out of the return period, there is no parts catalog or customer service.

I checked tonight and they're $399 here in Utah. I'll probably bite for the headache and a short-term high of a good deal at $299 if it falls further.
Theres a parts diagram at the back of the instructions manual, if you google the parts many are available or cross over easily like the belt I posted previously. It's a regular horizontal 212cc motor so even if the motor is a total loss you can probably throw a harbor freight predator on it. https://images.homedepot-static.c...baea17.pdf

Ya ever notice that all of these people who post YMMV items never ever tell us their city/area? Hmmmm. That's because the deals are FAKE!!!

I have searched the Home Depots in 12 different northern states (their app lets you search for 500 mile radius)...NONE have this deal. And we know this item doesn't exist in Florida.
Use BrickSeek. Home Depot does not show clearance item inventory in stores via the web or app.

Fort Wayne, IN, and the app is never going to tell you the clearance price in store...

Lol I bought the big rear tine in that sale and that was one of the first things that crossed my mind when I saw the pile of them "is this going to be another Chinese gas OPE super sale?" but it seems like only this model is on clearance at least around me. I'm still on the fence about this, I feel like the super mild winter may be lulling me into a false sense of my little battery snow blower being enough, but I really don't want to store yet another giant piece of equipment either.

250 a snowfall, where do you live, on a race track?
in a fairly affluent community in NJ just 15 miles due west of midtown Manhattan. We're talking a 4 car driveway (2x2), 75 feet of sidewalk and a walkway from the driveway to the front door (maybe 30 feet). It's ROBBERY.

I grew up 4 miles from here and I'd shovel 2 feet of snow off of neighbors' property for $10.

Your location makes that make a lot more sense. I'm in Fort Wayne IN and I'd be shocked if someone wanted more than 40-50 for a similar sized job at our house.

had a friend at HD confirm the $399 price in her NJ region. Still on the fence about pickup up a spare 24" powersmart, although the only thing my 6+ y/o powersmart has needed so far were shear pins and a pull cord

Too bad it doesn't snow anymore in NJ. Would have jumped on this.
Murphy taxes so high even the snow doesn't want to go there.
