Was walking the power tool aisle of the orange temple last week -----
a guy needed help - he was trying to get a Dewalt planer off the shelf.
I lent him a hand - and he said "Hmmm.... what's this priced at?"
It was sitting right there under the price tag for the 12 1/2 inch planer - but --- it looked different...... (it was the heavy duty two-speed 13 inch model - which our store usually doesn't carry).
Paged the (kid) department supervisor - who came by and stuck a scan tag and price tag on the box -------- OMG! He put a $349 price tag on a $600 planer!
Then - the purchaser tells me ---- "Oh I'm just trying to plane down some pine fence, so I can refinish it......"
Well - I gave him my business card, and told him I'd buy it off of him for $300 when he's done.......
Watching that planer go out the door ---- man that made me cry!
