I have one of these. they’re sold as kits to back alley assemblers in china who put their own brand name on them. mine cost $98 and overall it was worth it (5 cords and counting). I’ve seen them on amazon for $49. Mine had no way to secure the ground wire to the shutoff switch (fixed) and the safety lever across the front is installed backwards so you have to pull on it and hold it while cutting to release the brake (not fixed, parts are missing). materials are ok to good but assembly and quality control are crap.
That looks like a good deal. Maybe i can trade my Rolodex watch or Tinpanny Lamp for one.
