I went to the local Sears and they will give me a RainCheck for the sale price but the CompuCarve is not a Craftsman product but there is a sale on it also at $1519 on the online store(have to check it out). So if this works out I will get it locally when it's available at sale price. The mgr said it might be awhile(who knows what that mean) before it's back in stock.
Now life being what it is all this maybe a bit off since I have no way to confirm yet.

I attempted to order a Compucarve online this morning and was stopped since it is out of stock.

I then called the 1-800 number to order by phone and was told I could not order it, since it was out of stock. I explained that I didn't care about the backorder status, but I still could not order.

After reading the post here about the possibility of a raincheck, I drove straight away the 35 miles to the closest Sears Store, just to be told by their manager that they do not issue rainchecks, nor would they let me place an order for backorder status. According to him, the machines are not expected until the end of April.

Nice sale though. Grab the rainchecks if you can get 'em.

Marty,
I was just on the Sears site and was seeing if the craftsman club discount would apply for some more savings and got held up also at check out do to out of stock.. did notice though that on check out it did offer the extended warranty plans.. I was not really buying just seeing if the CC club was offering additional savings...

FWHarris, did they extend a Craftsman Club discount in addition to the 20% sale? That would be a GREAT deal!

It would not let me get that far because of the back order status. I was just curious because of a prior post about the CC discount..was hoping to post here that it did apply..

I did get the rain check but I don't know if it will be honored when the machine gets available. If it does great, if not I'll wait til the next sale.

I picked up two bit sets. One was the straight bits aprox $89 and the other was the edge bits aprox $160 they both came in bit boxes. Those prices were before the discount. Combined they make a full bit set and 2 bit boxes for less than $299 :o

Thanks for pointing out the sale.

Because Sears matches price for 30 days after purchase, I was able to call in to Sears.com and get the 20% discount for the machine I bought two weeks back.

I'm told that the discount will appear as a credit to my charge account.

auriclux,
You're my new best friend!!!!
I just got off the phone with Sears about their Price Match policy and I too will have a fatter wallet on the next credit card billing cycle. Without your post I would not have known about this policy.
Thankyou, thank you, thank you!
Bob
