ok, I have a chance to get this saw for $90. Still in the original box according to the seller.

Looking for opinions on if this is a good buy?

I'd offer him $75.00.

Although this saw will solve your pin end blade problem. You may find the saw a little maddening to begin with for blade changes.

Do a google search and read some of the conversations going on about that model. Then make a decision.

Here is one.

Thanks Mike. I was just actually reading some of those. I also emailed the seller with some questions. I am thinking I would better off waiting until I find a better saw for a good deal then spend money on something that barely gets me further then I am right now.

Opinions are still welcome but I think I will pass on this one.

I agree with your assessment.....You will be happier in the long run..
