Because of the X5 rebate, if I order by the end of the month, I get
another $100 off. I wanted a 52" fence, but the guy at Woodcraft made
a pretty good case for a 30" (safety, and saving the money).

My first question is on the fence. Which style do you all prefer?

I have a Grizzly and changed to a Biesmeyer 52". I've not used a Unifence so I
can't talk about the difference but I'm glad I made the change. I don't see
why there is a safety issue with a 30" vs. 52".


My second question is a moral issue. This guy spent a lot of time with
me and gave me some great insight. Do I cough up the extra money to
buy it there or do I avoid the sales tax and shipping charges and buy
it from Amazon (who is also giving an extra $25 off).

I would go back to Woodcraft with a print out from Amazon and ask them to
match the price. Where I made my purchase would depend on their answer or
willingness to work with me. They might not be willing to match the price but
could make some sort of counter with a discount or accessories. When possible
I try to buy locally but only up to a point. That point depends on the
merchant and attitude.
