Considering that brand name table saws come with 1-2 year
warranties,
I'd never consider paying 3/4 price for one that has no warranty,

Might want to look at the tools with warrantees versus those which
have
outserved them. The old ones were not made "good enough," they were
made
for a lifetime.

Yeah, the warranties on quality tools will likely be used only for
initial quality issues (warped table or something). You will not find
any workmanship problems in a Delta saw once the initial kinks are
worked out.

Your choice to buy new though. That's an expensive warranty you're
paying for, plus any downtime on warranty work.

I don't plan to buy new stationary tools ever again, regardless of my
budget.
