Just scored a good deal

I was in Home Depot yesterday and saw that the Milwaukee V18 drill kit was
on sale for 169.00. I came home and went to the Home Depot website and
saw that the drill and kit regularly sold for 343.00. I then figured that I was
probably mistaken and had seen the Milwaukee M18 drill kit rather than the
V18 as the M18 drill sold for 199.00. Went back today, and sure enough, it
was the V18 drill, driver, hammerdrill kit. Needless to say, I whipped out my
Home Depot consumer card and purchased the drill. Even though this drill is
chinese made just like the 1/2" corded magnum drill I posted about under the
topic "Disappointed but not surprised", after reading some of your thoughts
concerning chinese made tools, and the fact that I discovered that some of
my older tools were also chinese made, and had performed flawlessly, I decided that maybe the quality just might still be there.
 
I don't have any immediate plans to use it, it just seemed like a good deal
and I liked the looks of the drill. Checking on Amazon showed that the drill
could be had for 168.00 so it looks like Home Depot was putting a heckuva
markup on the drill.
