Axminster in the UK  are about £100  more.

Why does it seem so cheap? Does anyone know  anything about  FFX  and how credible they are?

Can they really be knocking a hundred quid off  axminster?

No, but you can get the saw, 2 rails, bag and jointing bars for £412 elsewhere. I was going to get the Domino from ffx as well its only £499 from them..

I think they've got a bricks and mortar shop in Folkestone that I've been to. They had a fair few things that seemed good value. Just need to persuade them to sell me ex vat for export like Axminster. You could try Toolsave - they used to be fery good in price.
