Are there any besides Woodcraft that carry power tools (tablesaws,
bandaws etc.)?

General Industrial Supply is where I always check, first. They are a
regional service center and get all the scratch and dents from all
around. I got my Jet 1236 lathe for about 1/4-1/3 of (not off) retail
and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it, except for the two fork
lift tongue holes through the box.

They now have a big showroom and are a Rockler dealer. But the real
deals are to be found in the dark, dusty storage areas in the warehouse.
Don't expect service with a smile or to be shown around and coddled.

Go to the desk and tell them you want to look at the scratch and dents.
