Cheapest place to purchase the PC Polisher?
Hey guys,
I'm looking to invest in the Porter Cable 7424 polisher. I found one site on the web that included the 6" counterweight and velcro backplate for $119.00. Anyone found it cheaper than this? What about Lowes, Home Depot or Sears? I have a $25 gift cert. for Sears, just haven't had the chance to scope things out. Let me know.

I got mine at Lowe's for right around $100. Go to www.lowes.com and create a personalized profile. Then on that page, check the box that says you will be moving in the next 6 months. Within a few days, a 10% off coupon will show up in your e-mail.

Gapguy,
Why are you selling if you just got it?
And what is the diff. between the pc7336 and the pc7424? I thought the pc7336 was the one to have.
btw the pc7336 is $107 at Lowe's

Ah, good questions ToyBox. Anyone care to elaborate? What is the difference between the two? $107, that's pretty cheap. I can't understand why people are paying $130-$140 on Ebay??? :pat:

Those links are nice but the only diff I see is that the 7336 has ball bearings and the 7336sp has ball AND roller bearings. Can someone actually explain the practical differences between the two? And is the sp version more expensive? And by looking at your links, again I don't see much of a difference between the 7424 and the 7336. What is the diff between these two?

From what I can see the only difference between the 7424 and 7336 is that the 7336 includes the velcro backing, sanding discs and counterweght. The 7424 just gives you the polishing pad. That's what I can see. Both are variable speed, 6" disc, and same RPM ranges.
