They cant/dont control everything. Deals like this have been going on pretty consistently since I started following/buying Festool stuff.

Festool dealers are licensed to sell in a designated area and violations can result in revocation of their ability to sell.

For me it is a simple matter of shopping, if a manufacturer sets prices whether it be Festool or anyone else I take it as a personal challenge to pay less than MSRP for the products. I don't even dare disclose my best 3-4 sources on a forum. In 10 years of buying Festool the only new items I have paid MSRP for are the ones I bought locally when I needed them immediately or wanted to actually play with them in person first, heck I didn't pay retail for the Pro 5s I bought. As long as I have a computer, internet connection and the world at my fingers I will find a deal. In reality it is not worth my time but I enjoy it and have saved at least $6K on Festool over time.
Nice way to bring it to Festools radar. I've been doing this for years.
