where would this offer be had?

[Jeff Kent]

Yes. I took the Survey on Tuesday AM, ordered the sander with a credit card, and I recieved the sander 2 days later on Thursday. It took 2 days to get it in California. I assume it was shipped from Illinois. I got the offer electronically from subscribing to CabinetMaker Magazine (Free subscription BTW) and getting their electronic bulletins. At first, it really did seem to good to be true. Who sells a $225 sander (including sandpaper) for $59 ??? But the URL's were legitimate. My only complaint was that the ordering sight was http and not https (secure).

Unfortunately, your email has to be in their database (i.e. a subscriber to their email list) and you can't re-use your email once you've taken the survey.

It might be possible to get on their email list and still get the offer? Might be worth a try.

Here's the text of the email I recv'd: ================================================ As a subscriber to Cabinetmaker's Shop Tips Newsletter, you have the opportunity to take part in a special product testing promotion from Festool.

If you do not yet own any Festool power tools, participating in the following short survey will qualify you to purchase a Festool 6" Random Orbital ETS 150/3 finishing sander and abrasives for a product testing price that is almost 75% off the catalog price.
