I'm going to be traveling for a while so I've made the difficult decision to part with all of my Festool goodies. They were all acquired since Jan '07 and have been carefully cared for and used only by me - (never loaned to or abused by anyone else).

These items would ship from the Finger Lakes Region of NY (a small town near Geneva, NY), or pickup can be arranged.

Among the items I am selling are:

OF1400EQ Router and CT Midi Vac
Domino DF 500 Plus Set w/ Trim and Cross Stop accessories
ETS 150/3 EQ  Random Orbital Sander
ETS 125EQ Random Orbital Sander
MFT 1080 Basic Table
CT-22 Extractor w/ Boom Arm
TS55 w/ MFT 1080 table and guides
as well as numerous consumables and accessories - sanding discs, domino tenons and bits, TS 55 Blades, clamps, guides, etc.

All tools come with their original systainers, etc.

Prices are 65% of original retail (most items were purchased before the last two price increases).

I can email a complete list to anyone who is interested.

Please PM me with any questions

Thanks,
Bruce
 
I've been overwhelmed by the responses so far and am trying to catch up. I have one individual interested in all of the equipment, but in case that doesn't work out I'll be responding to each of you in the order you sent me PMs or emails.

Thanks for all of the interest, I'll update this posting again when I know what or if I have any equipment left.

It seems there are many people with Festool fever but they're being thwarted in their search for the cure by their significant other, wallet, etc.

I still have most of my Festools left for sale (Domino and accessories, ETS150 and 125 sanders, CT22 and CTMidi, MFT tables, etc.). These are a great deal at an average of 65% of list price.

Please PM or email me bruce@trendycatdesign.com if you'd like a complete list with prices and are ready to treat your fever.

Bruce, I sent you an email but it was returned to me.  I am interested in a price list.  Please send it to rnt80@msn.com.
 
Has anyone bought anything from Bruce?  No offense to him but I don't know him from Adam and I'm a little hesitant to send out payment for something without any feedback.
 
I e mailed him on Tuesday, but I have not heard from him yet. Too bad, as this money is burning a hole in my pocket ;) 
 
I am about 10 miles from him.

3 weeks ago I wanted to buy the vacuum without the boom and some small items.  He told me had so many people wanting it that he wasn't going to sell it piecemeal.

My guess is he sold it and hasn't been back here.
 
I got my sander, vac bags and sandpaper today from Bruce.  While it was hard getting in touch with him I did have a chance to speak with him over the phone and he was a pleasure to talk to.
 
Thanks for all of the interest. I still have a number of Festool items left as well as numerous other shop tools (Bessey K Clamps, Lee Valley router table and fence, etc.), hardwoods (wenge, cherry, maple) and other items.

All of these items will be auctioned on Wed. May 27 at 5:30PM. Phone/internet bids will be accepted. Contact the auctioneer for details at the following web site:

Someone in Canandaigua had a vague CL listing for hardwood and exotics, but ignored me when I emailed for more information.
Was that you?!

Well, I hope to get to the sale and pick up the Festool items you didn't want to sell me.
Tools always go way too high at auctions, but wood often goes for just about nothing.

Just got back from trendycat's auction.  The festool stuff went from about 30% of retail for the vacuums to nearly list for a MFT.  The only festool I bid on was a domino that went for $500 when I fell out at $475.  I did buy a bag of dominoes for $2, and some clamps, so it wasn't a total waste.

No wood though, except for some weird bamboo plywood stuff.

What did the John Deere sell for?  I'm in the market.

The tractor and the front end loader went for (I think...) $8,500.
Looked to be mint.
