Why oh why is the ryobi ts1355la only found online as a factory recondition??? DOnt see it anywhere sold as brand new? Is it that they were all recalled? Love the options the saw comes with for the pricepoint. But if Its bound to fail, Ill just avoid. But am very curious to know why this is? Thanks, Grandeson
Something to think about:
If Home Depot discontinues an item from a line that they have an exclusive on for any reason, and the manufacurer still has inventory in it's warehouse, or on the water, they are stuck with no where to sell them, unless they slap a "Reconditioned" label on them. NEW Ryobi tools are sold exclusively through Home Depot....
I'm not saying that I have any knowledge that the saw you are looking at is or isn't reconditioned. I am saying that I have heard first hand accounts from people "in the know" that this type of thing is done regularly, and that it's not unuasal to label new items as recons for various reasons
