Even though these are refurb tools, they almost always come with 3 year warranty instead of 1. I've bought a dozen tools from their refurb site and all of them so far have been brand new.

I had a similar experience with my last purchase just last month. I bought the Vecturo OSC 18 Basic, and it arrived with grime on the Starlock tool holder and drywall dust inside the unit, especially near the fan. They also forgot to include the blade. However, Festool quickly sent a replacement blade, and after cleaning it up, the machine works flawlessly. No complaints—just surprised, as all my previous recon purchases have been in like-new condition.

The description for the track saws says the tracks are included, but the inclusion list does not show them. Anyone know if they are included?

Where do you see it saying the tracks are included? I do not believe they are.

The festool ecosystem can be a little daunting to get into but if you need great portability and dust collection I don't think there is anything better, and that combination is highly important for anything done on site or inside a residence. Or a domino, since they're the only game in town for that.
I've bought several recon tools and they all looked new. I never knew I could feel so approving of a vacuum I spent $600 on, but I do love my Midi. everything from festool recon came quickly and without issues.
I was really hoping for a rotex 90. Maybe next time.

Their faq says 1 year. How do you know it's 3 years?

I registered the tools on their site and all of mine were never registered and therefore came with a 3 year warranty. A lot of the tools they list on recon are open box returns.

I think you are right. When I read it again said "when combined …with the tracks" For some reason that registered differently in my head.

Am I missing something new with site navigation? The site loads for me with just the standard single-tool front-page deal (currently a Rotex RO 125)

It looks like it switched back and this 'deal' is over.

I've been watching this site for a while and haven't seen anything for sale. I'm in the market for the RTSC 400, ever seen it on there?
