Bosch 1617 w/router table base...10% off. Not bad when you consider 10% off, no sales tax, and free shipping. I didn't do a street price comparison, so do your own research...

Just priced the Bosch with the fixed base and plunge base and added the under table base at Amazon. Total price with all 3 bases figures out to be $238.00. For $13 more you get all three bases. OH Boy, should I or shouldn't I ? 

Well I bit the bullet and ordered the Bosch 1617 with all three bases. I went with the refurbished router, so with all three bases it cost $228.00

Outstanding! All three bases is a great buy. Was $228 the final price or was there additional taxes and shipping. If not, WOW!

 

Seriously, how can you pass up a deal like that?

No shipping charges. I did have about $11 in taxes. That's still only $239. Should be arriving tomorrow.

Cool! Guess you'll be in the shop after all Besides, routers are like clamps, you never can have too many

I guess that once you're addicted Dave there's no quitting. Everything arrived today. I've installed the router in the router table. Haven't had a chance to give it a try.

Looks right smart in it's new home...pretty sweet deal when you think about the cost of any router lift alone.

Suggest this thread be moved to Tools, Research, Reviews, & Safety? More appropriate there IMO.

Lot of good info here. Thanks in advance.
