No experience, but I would never buy anything from someone with such an annoying website!

I think I answered you over on WC. But if not, I got my 3520 and a PM
66 table saw from him. Saved a bunch. No problems. You just have to get past the web site design!RP
I purchased my 3520 form him, Great prices and service. Will order from them for my next big tool purchase.

Does seem a bit like something Cal Worthington or that left coast appliance guy would have, doesn't it.
Appliances? Did Cal Worthington and his dog, Spot, get out of the used car business?
For those who have never lived in Southern California this guy would come on TV advertising his merchandise. Always with some animal on a leash. Never a dog though. My favorite was when he went down the line of cars with a full grown tiger on a leash. The cars would sink down as the suspension bottomed out under the tiger's weight as it jumped from car hood to car hood.

No, Cal's still off Bellflower blvd, but there's the other "crazy" appliance guy whose name escapes me. Middle eastern, I think.
Patty,
To my knowledge, Cal is still in Sacramento but no longer uses animals in his ads. When I lived in Stockton (ten years ago) he was still heavy on the TV with his dog spot, yes with the tiger. When the circus came to town he used those animals to make his ads. Harold in MI
