Think I was able to score one of the Midis! I won't know for sure for a few days, though, right? Great timing, I was actually headed out the door in a bit to go buy one.

Your dealer should be able to tell you immediately.
 
We do not email customers regarding reconditioned tool orders. Your dealer gets any communications from us.
 
There are no dealers near me participating can any one recommend one to call? I know the sale is for us only. I am fine with that as I have a place to ship it to.
 
Canada has their own recon tools sale, you should check the discussion a few pages back.
 
Maybe I'm missing something but can someone direct me to the Canadian recon tool site then. Please

There's not a site for the Canadian recon inventory. The inventory is separate from the U.S. inventory and is available in very small quantities. Please contact your preferred dealer for more information on the program and what tools are available.

A lot of this was covered earlier in the thread, including a (at that time) list of tools available in Canada. I'd recommend paging back through the thread to have a look at my previous posts on the topic.
 
Thanks Shane. I have called every Canadian dealer I can think of and none of them seem to interested in dealing with the reconditioned tool inventory. If you know of any I could contact that would be great. Also I have read the back posts and ran a search but I have not found a link to any Canadian list. The nearest I have seen is the suggestion to contact a dealer.

Anyone know if the email notifications some of us are getting for the sale is still working? Note, I am not talking about the notifications from Festool. Are new listings really disappearing in minutes?

I would wager that one / a few dealers are using the above notification and placing all stock of desirable items on hold and then calling people that had interest in them.  Lots of items on and off hold over a number of hours.  IMO it is the only way to work the system and easy for a business to do with the limited release window.  I have no problem with this...the tools are hopefully ending up in more talented hands vs mine.

I would not take that bet... It's obvious that is what is happening with the same items that keep popping backup every 30min
 
I just saw a Kapex show up a few minutes ago but was gone next time I refreshed the page.  I saw the Planex sander earlier today it was up for awhile.  The Midi and Mini vacuums would pop up then disappear and pop up again a short time later.  So I would say the email is probably working.  If I remember correctly it was supposed to have a bit slow of a refresh so it is likely that there are items showing up that the list doesn't catch as well.

I was trying to decide if I wanted a vacuum or not so I was watching them for a few hours today and they would be available for longer than I was expecting then go away and come back later.  Guessing it was dealers trying to complete the sale but not being able to get the customer on the phone to finalize the order.  I finally decided not to get a vacuum I have had a CT36 for a while and will just use it for now.

I don't think the red text indicating low inventory is working I have not seen it for some time even the Kapex showed up as black text. 

Only a few items left on my list to try and get.  Thank you Festool for offering this promotion.  It has really helped me setup my shop with great quality tools.

I have been trying to snag that kapex all day... Oh well... If a dealer has it on hold send me a pm and I will take it  [big grin]
 
I guess conspiracy theories might be fun, but the reality is that it would be impossible for a dealer to sandbag all of the inventory. The nature of the way the ordering process works wouldn't make that possible.

I'll be glad when this recon sale is over and vote not to do it again anytime soon.  [unsure]
