Well, it's right if somebody buys it for $225.  I suppose.  I gotta admit, though, that a 10 inch worm drive is not a common critter -- it's gotta raise the price somewhat.

As a user, that reciprocating saw is overpriced - I owned a Craftsman flavor of that general design, and boy was it hard to use compared to the D-handle design of the Milwaukee and its many imitators.

Back when the Skill reciprocator came along, it was the best to be had short of a Milwaukee.
It was way short of a Milwaukee in performence, and I still remember wearing a welding glove to keep the damn thing from burning my hand.  It cost around $39 1960s dollars.
