I'm with you. My understanding is some stores will close soon and the
inventory sent to other stores that will drag on a bit (like the one
here in Lebanon, NH). BUT, they'll have to do better than 20% off, which
really only gets them to other places everyday price (example: Makita
router set, $250 after _all_ discounts -- I found one on-line for that
price + they'll throw in a fence).
The store here has many mobile bases and roller stands, and a fair
amount of clamps. I can't imagine them all selling at the current price.
Maybe when it's 50% off I'll go scavenge.

I also agree. I've been to 5-6 stores in NJ. Very little was 40% most was
20% which was only competitive with other sources.

They can keep it.
The store by me in NJ had signs that said, "Liquidation, Everything must
go", "20%-40% off".
The 20% off was no big deal. I can find those prices anywhere.
I asked what they had in the store that was 40% off and the salesman said
they had nothing there that was marked down that low. Everything was at full
retail price, nothing marked down other than the 20% off.
Right up to the last few minutes they were only giving 20% off and said what
was left was being shipped to Massachusetts, so much for the liquidation at
that location.
I tried to by a Delta Unisaw there last February and they wouldn't talk
price so I waited 2 weeks and went to a sale an hour away where a Delta rep
was present and saved around $300. Their prices seemed a bit on the high
side on most of their products, they needed to adjust to the internet's
pricing but chose to go out of business instead.
I really want to buy a Jet 15" planer, they had 2 of them left but at 20%
off their normal price the incentive was not there for me to jump on it.
Might be time to order a Grizzly.
