Don't but this. Porter Cable is dead. Tractor Supply was the last place that sold new Porter Cable power tools, which were rebranded Black&Decker brushed tools...complete crap. Tractor Supply is dropping Porter Cable and will be selling Skil 20v instead, so they are getting rid of their remaining Porter Cable inventory. No one would every spend the regular $149 for the bare tool, and since it is a bare tool, you'll still you to buy a battery that is powerful enough to run a full size circular and a charger. Either buy a corded circular saw (the Skil 15amp is usually around this price) or a property cordless circular batteries and charger...there are solid 6 1/2" or 7 1/4" cordless circular saws that you can get with a decent battery and charger for $100-$150. The deal at Harbor for the Hercules starter kit at $119 is a very solid deal and will buy this Porter Cable piece of crap out of the water.

Porter-Cable 20V Max tools are indeed on the way out, but not nearly as crappy as you make out. For one thing, batteries are essentially the same as B+D 20V Max batteries, requiring only a easily done mod on the top of either one (P-C or B+D 20V Max) to be useable in either tool line--including chargers!
I suspect you're clutching your pearls on the mention of B+D 20V tools--but they've been fine for me for years, including garden tools as well as shop/woodworking tools. So particularly if you've already invested in that cordless line, and want a light duty saw to use for certain quick tasks, this might be a good fit. And yes, you can't beat a corded tool for serious work, provided you're in cord length range.

I've had porter cable for about 15 years now and this circular saw is one I don't have and could use.

I still have an impact driver in the box for when mine eventually dies (from when Lowe's got rid of them). Maybe if nobody buys these, I'll buy a drill and jigsaw to hold until them too lol.
