Where did you buy your PC?
 

I am looking for a porter cable and I have had no luck finding one locally it seems. Where did everyone get theirs?

Also should I get the 7426XP or the one with the adhesive mount (73XX). I have heard it is the same system but I believe there is a different size counter balance if I am not mistaken.

I plan on buying the pads through Adams but I was looking for the best deal on the unit itself (hopefully locally). I think toolking.com has them pretty cheap.

For the most part they're all the same PC just designates model number by what accessories come packaged with it. the "SP" models usually include sandpaper, XP include the crap white pad, etc.

Most tool suppliers won't have it any cheaper than around $110-$120 unless you catch it on sale.

One reason you may want to consider buying thru us is the warranty. Our lifetime warranty covers the machine as well so you're not relying simply on the 1 year manufacture warranty if anything happens to go wrong.

Great thanks for the info... even if I purchase the PC locally I am still going to get my pads and accessories through you guys.

Got mine at Lowes about 3-4 years ago.

Just picked it up from there tonight... now I need to order my pads and stuff from Adams.

Paid $125 after tax (had a 10% coupon)... not a bad deal.

I got everything from Adams, service is great and the product is even better.....

I bought mine from Amazon. $118, no tax, free shipping.
