Hi guys, Im looking for a hand here. Shopping for a Makita polisher and would like to see what the best deal is out there. I found a local one for 186 bucks and this is just the machine its self. No pads, No backing plate.

try one of the sponsors, and you might get a discount code as well.

The pads and backing plate that come with it are trash.



Just make sure it comes with the 2 handles, 2 screws, and the screw adjustment tool.
 
Its a deacent discount, but i get killed on shipping to Canada so it evens out really.



The link i posted above from rona.ca is that the same polisher that im looking for? it doesnt say 9227C anywhere but it looks identical.
 
I got lucky on eBay a year ago. 125 used in great condition. The guy was asking for 175 but had the "best offer" option, and almost as a joke I offered 125 and he took it.

Contact them and see if it is the same one.
 
how bout craigslist? might take a while but i have had luck there i bought a makita and cyclo 5 are very very low prices and both have worked awesome.
 
I just bought mine through Arctic Tools on ebay for $174 shipped!! It came with both handles, BP, 2 pads, and an excellent high quality carrying case. They also have great customer service.
 
Artic tools on ebay is the sh%*! 174 shipped, backing plate, pads, glove n bag, opposed to 260 with nothing from other suppliers, I highly suggest them

That's what I ordered and UPS lost my package. I ended up getting the CX3 opposed to the CX5. That's ok though since I already have the pads and backing plates.
 
thetoolwarehouse.net has the Makita 9227CX5 on sale for $194.25, it comes with both the side handle and loop handle, a sponge and hook & loop backing pad, 4 Makita microfiber polishing towels, 1 pair of Mechanix Wear Gloves, and a Makita tool bag.
