I could see myself paying $75 max for this radio that has Festools stamp on it. If it has extra features I might be willing to pay more.
We talked about this radio before and the reviews on it were not that great.
If memory serves Festool isn't selling the radio at all, they're giving it away free with purchase of a tool (I think the Kapex). I believe it is Ebaysellersbuyers that are jacking up the price.
Festool giving away radios that are made in china (if they are made in china) just doesn't strike me right as sending a message of promoting German technology & quality. At the least they should be stereo speakers not 80 year old mono technology. Perhaps they pickup programs from the golden age of radio like Little Orphan Annie, Hopalong Cassidy, the Adventures of Philip Marlowe, etc. [big grin]
