Problem is that they are only cheaper in areas where saws are way more expensive than the US. In Oz the 381 is $1,250 ADU, which is the same price as the 261 there. The 391 is $1,200 AUD. The 362 is $1,450 and the 441C-M is $1,750 AUD. With 10% GST tax and an exchange rate of $0.86 USD to $1.00 AUD, a 381 is $1,185 USD, plus any shipping here. A new 391 here is only $550, a 362 here is $750, and a 441C-M here is $960, plus sales tax which varies by state. No sale tax in Oregon where I live. So there is no way I would buy a 381 from overseas, and this is why I have shipped a lot of new US saws down under, especially when the AUD was 1.10 USD.
