Not a deal. This is on my Amazon wishlist and has been around $99 for at least a year.

I disagree, CCC shows this oscillating between 99 and 149 since Feb. It is still a deal even if you want it to go lower. It did hit 85 last holiday season so maybe you will see it go back down that low again soon. Good luck!

I literally look at my list every day and it's been $99 most of the time. Every so often they put it up near $150 so they can say you're getting a deal just about any other time you look at it.

Ah ok gotcha. I see the same all the time with tents, bags and pads. Drives me nuts.

Well fingers crossed it hits 85!

If you buy the 4 pack batteries from Lowe's you can get this as the "free" tool. With in store purchase you can hack this tool to $85, just return the batteries for the pro-rated price.
Literally just did this.

I've heard people talk how this isn't a good heat gun, but if it's 80% off what my current one is I'll be happy.
I usually don't NEED it at full temp, am doing just a few things (heat shrink), and usually doing it somewhere where I have to use an extention cord.

these things are terrible at any price, let alone nearly $100. you need something that puts out 1000-1500 watts and you just ain't getting that from a battery. better off buying a $25 heat gun.

Love mine, works great. I don't use it to strip paint, I have a corded gun designed for high output heavy duty jobs. This one is great for shrink tube and removing decals easy.

Coming back to say this is down to $90 shipped and sold by Amazon. So about 10% off normal price. Not $85 yet tho!
