And, thanks to the Slack channel notification this morning I was finally able to snag this puppy.

Always nice to see this [cool]

Are there instructions on the slack channel notification?    Really don't need to spend more money though. lol.  Scored the TS 55 and OF 1400 yesterday.
 
I haven't looked terribly closely at the #festool-more channel in Slack to compare and contrast the queue from one tool to the next, but it seems like they are either:

a) listing quantities of the same tool under separate entries in the queue
or
b) setting up an auto/manual rotation to help avoid from having the duds stall out the queue

Just when you think you have the Recon figured out...

I also wonder if the recent increase in tools is a result of collecting demos and spares from dealers while they're doing their Roadshow.
 
I don't understand how to select an item for purchase from the Recon site.  I see all their offerings but every time I click on any of them, it will only bring up atthe first item in the list.  And I'm unable to add anything to the cart other than that first item.

Am I missing something? Or is this the only way you can get items?  Take whatever is first in the list?

Appreciate any edification anybody can provide.

 
Typically only 1 reconditioned tool is available for purchase at a time (currently Mixer MX 1200).  The exception that comes to mind is the Black Friday sale where all listed tools are available purchase.  I think there have been some other instances/holidays where all tools were available for purchase, but it's not frequent or common.

Here's the 'explainer' post about how the Recon site works:
