My guess would be because few people here own one or have seen a need to buy one. There's several dozen different woodworking machines I'd buy before I'd consider a wood milling machine.
There's only one listed as a "wood milling machine", the 9959/9977, with the difference being that the 9977 has a power feed on the table.
Seems to me that this is specialized equipment--if you have a production need that it fills then it would be the bees knees, if you don't have such a need it would mainly be useful as a gift to the "man who has everything including an empty space in his shop just waiting for an expensive seldom used tool".

Send the money. I'll order it TODAY! I'd love one of those but I'm short about $2k right now. I just had to pay taxes, credit card bill, and get a new microwave. The old one decided to start arc internally and was cycling the computer protection circuit every time I warmed coffee.
I want one but sure don't have the money for it.
Many years ago I purchased a Grizzly vertical mill instead of a drill press. It makes a great precision router. Once you have accepted the initial cost for the mill and some tooling you will enjoy the machine.
