Looks like Harbor Freight is changing the venerable 4x6 bandsaw from the green model they've sold for years (37151) for an improved (?) red one:
I suspect that the price is almost entirely based on shipping costs and the markup the seller wants to make. Certainly, the same basic design seems to vary by a factor of four in price, based on no significant change in specification. It's like Ebay, wait until you see one at a price you are happy with. I paid about half the current UK going rate for mine and (once I'd cleaned the gearbox out and put proper 1000cST oil in it) it does sterling work for me.

I'll have to check for one. My old style green one has been great, certainly worth the normal sale price I paid.
