I am going down to my local lathe supply store this weekend to buy myself a Jet 1642 EVS (1.5hp). The store is having a dealer day and are supposed to offer good discounts. I have seen this lathe as low as $1599 during a christmas sale. What do you all thinks is a resaonable dicsount to ask/look for? of course i want to pay as little as possible, but don't want to get laughed out of the store.
