On sawmillcreek, there is a deal alert about a Delta bandsaw for 150.
My local store wouldn't pricematch at first, because the receipts on SMC were from different states, but I talked to the manager and he made a phone call to his manager, who gave the green light.
The saw in question is this one: http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=59964-70-28-276&lpage=none
Here is a copy of my receipt so you can take it to any NC Lowes and they should be able to price match:

And in case they try to pull one on you and say that it was a floor model that I was sold, it was not. Brand new in the box.
It might not be the absolute best bandsaw in the world, but it might be for the price
