I personally wouldn't wait that long. I'd cancel the order and get one from Amazon.com

I have to agree. I have found that Home Depot online customer service stinks. I bought a belt sander online and after a couple weeks I had a problem. They have a 30 day return policy. But man, what a pain in the neck. It took them over a month to pick it up and another month before I got a refund. It worked out in the end, but never again. They seem to think nobody is ever in a hurry.

If it were a Hawk you had ordered you would be knee deep in sawdust by now, dang sorry to rub salt in a wound.

Have faith your saw will arrive, until then use your foot pedal wisely and watch the Kobolt 500 NASCAR race today and make motor noises with your lips.

Is this Dewalt's Month of Horrors or something? It seems that just about every problem you could have with a 788, someone's having this month...

I'd cancel the order and go to Lowe's. I ordered mine through them. They told me 10 days until they got the order in, but it only took them 3 to get it and call me. They even matched the price I saw for the saw at another store, plus 10% off.

Whatever you do, I hope you get a saw soon!
