After attending the detail clinic I'm planning to buy one of the Dewalt rotary buffers (Model DW849) with the adjustable electronic speed control that Mike used on our cars.

The MSRP is $360, Mike said it should run about $225, and I found it currently for sale on Amazon's tools and hardware page for $189.99 with free shipping.

Does anyone know of a better price elsewhere?

I'll still have to buy the pads and bonnets and all the chemicals, so I need to find the best prices I can. Can anyone recommend a good paint supply shop that sells Meguiar's products at good prices? I'm near Pasadena, so anywhere within probably 40 miles would be OK.
