This is Hikoki's 18V 6½" circular saw, 66mm cut at 90°. Blade right, LEDs, a really nice depth adjustment, parallelism adjustment (which even Bosch is missing on its flagships), no ripping guide in the box (sad) but there is an option of a long ripping guide that attaches to both the front and rear of the plate. Tilt is secured front and rear to reduce wobble. Motor body is a bit higher off the plate than others I've seen so it is more likely to clear your speed square. Good visibility, especially if you remove the pommel (cough - don't do that, of course). Other signs of quality: the captive screws that secure the ripping guide don't screw down on the guide's arm: they push on a plate that squeezes on the arm, so tightening doesn't try to wind the guide in or out like it does on the PoS skilly I'm using now. You can nudge the spring-loaded zero-degree tilt adjustment out of the way to tilt a tiny bit negatively.
For those who don't know, Hikoki is ex-Hitachi, aka Metabo HPT, but this deal is really only for those who do know because you bring your own battery or charger. If you need those, they will set you back another $400(mitre10.co.nz), or you could buy a second skin (the cheapest might be a jigsaw) in the same transaction and get a small free battery by redemption offer before it expires at the end of this month, then a second-hand charger for under $100.
I tried price matching at the Toolshed, both online and in person. In both cases they said "no way, that's below cost". I tried at Mitre 10 and she was agreeable, but she didn't look closely at the deal (she just said Hector Jones was okay) so I guess there's a chance they might blanche after seeing the price.
If Mitre 10's 15% works as I think it does, this will end up closer to $270-$290 after adding shipping.

This is a great deal if you have Hikoki batteries and don't want the gruntier 36V version. I'm sceptical about whether I would need that extra power in a small skilly. I dearly wish I was into team green already so I could take advantage.
