Woodworkers supply has these Vendor Days (dunno what else to call it, couple
times a year) as well. I purchased a unisaw, with mob base, got 10% off and
was given the tenoning jig. I've been to a few of these "sales/shows" and it
seems that all vendors give a 10% discount.

I've used both the Grizzly and the Delta, they are both fine machines.

Get the one you want!

Blume has the Delta 37-380 in stock for $1095. There would be no
shipping
because I could just go get it. Their "show" begins on Friday and the
salesman told me the jointer would be included but he didn't know what
the
discount would be. He said he won't know until the rep tells them what
is
authorized.

Does anybody have any advice? Has anyone bought one of these big
jointers
at one of these events? What kind of savings should I expect?

One of our local stores has an annual event. They offer 10% on most
items,
including power tools. I've not seen more than that. Don't expect the
Delta rep to wheel and deal either. I asked for a minor change on
something
promoted at one of the sales and was turned down. I walked past him
wheeling out my Jet DC instead.
