Just received a new Grizzly Drill press Only $199 plus shipping. Unbelievable.

Sweat shops? ;)

Not exactly....labor costs are very low....limited environmental regulations....

No OSHA, .60 cents an hour, lawsuits are rare, hard workers, very limited benefits, loose tolerances, thick paint, all in all a dang good value :D

Many complain about import products but without them most of us would not have much in the way of machinery or equipment, at least initially.

DieGuy,
I just looked at you picture again, you can purchase storage shelves much cheaper :D

I got this from Grizzly Tools. So far the assembly looks good and the quality not to bad. The only things I did was partial disassembly, debur, clean and lube it up properly with some lubriplate. Pretty heavy duty and real configurable for the money. I did take a while to show up but most of that was trucking. Pretty satisfied for the money.
