I bought a TS55 from the recon site in the spring and it was purely by luck. I happened to look at the site and the track saw was for sale. I had not yet gotten an email for it. I've had no luck with responding to any emails, by the time I clicked the link, the tool was always gone, with the exception of the Vecturo, which was available a lot earlier this year.
I think that the issue is that they only have one of whatever it is that is up for sale. When its gone, its gone. If they have several thousand emails to send, by the time those of us who are at the end of the list get the email, it is too late.
I've heard Sedge allude during Festool Live that they were going to be doing something with the recon site in the near future, which I interpreted to mean something for Black Friday.
