Still, it might be legitimate. Might just be a bloke that's trying to market the products of his nice homebuilt CNC machine, VERY knowledgeable on the technical front, but not so much on the commercial front.
Tucked away in his basement trying to perfect his CNC portal router.... Might explain the somewhat-less-then-functional female assistents as well....
And the price would STILL be a steal !
It's not an entirely new concept to the woodworking/tool community either: Think woodshopdemo's nice assistants.
Over here there's a nice reseller of all kinds of powertools that shows videos of "Naomi" demonstrating some tools in the line-up.
Naomi's videos
You'll have to speak Dutch to grasp the rather obvious ambiguity in her comments on the tools at hand, but I'm sure you'll catch the drift.
Let's just say that a CT22 doesn't need a reference to "suction power" to be considered - the Hitachi clearly does.
Still, it's a nice company, very good customer relations and I've bought from them to full satisfaction ( and that was NOT meant to be ambiguous, thanks a lot ).
The internet has supplied small entrepreneurs with possibilities to cater to a potentially large audience.
The average small privately owned business won't have the means OR the needs to invest in a professional marketing plan.
So these things pop up now and again - I must say I actually like it: it's kind of refreshing between the very-effective-but-a-bit-bland marketing efforts of the big professional companies.
And quite matter-of-factly: it gets them exposure so it can't be all bad, can it? I must confess, as a small business owner, I might be a bit biased.... [embarassed]
