Over a month ago, Sears had their 17" "Professional" Drill Press available for $179.00. I figured it was a price mistake and it turned out that it was. I have to hand it to our Sears here in Austin, they made good on the offer! On their retail floor, this unit is priced at $529. I fully expected them to cancel the order but then I noticed they had charged my credit card anyway so I pursued it.
Even though the one I ordered had not come in (and probably wouldn't at that price), the store was kind enough to cancel my online order and then sell me a unit from their stock at the original price. Here is a stock picture of the drill press
By the way, not shown is a laser guide. Not sure how well that will work for pen blanks but its worth a try. My old (Harbor Freight) DP will be up on Craigslist soon!
