    I can only imagine what a small percentage of the visitors to this site know what the heck a router table is for. Out of those how many are going to buy this one? There must be some kind of voodoo economics going on here. Page impressions are more valuable than sales?

    Variety is good #1, how many visitors to the site need to buy the same thing over and over?

    Whether someone interested in a router table would buy this one... if it's on sale that differentiates it from the ones that aren't, so being a deal site it seems a timely offer.

    They still believe internet traffic can bring more $$.

    I bought one and as far as I cal tell it's well made. Mostly
    metal and MDF table (melamine covered.) Even has a dust collector
    port, and power switch.

    #1 Patron Saints Norm Abram & Mike Holmes sees your foolishness.

    #5 Mostly Metal?!? Medium density fiber board?!?

    If it's not metal and made in china don't buy it. Save your money, watch Craigslist and be a much happier carpenter.

    #6 this is for light use, something you can toss in your truck bed or trunk, kick out of the way if you have limited workshop space.

    I can see the value in that, I have a nice full sized all metal table saw that I ended up storing in the corner of my garage taking up valuable space because not being portable it is too much of a PITA to get it outside if stored anywhere else, too much of a mess inside and the sawdust sets off the smoke detectors.
