i bought mine from home depot for 150 i would recomend that it is well worth the money you spend...i looked at alot of them and thats the best i have found for the money and the best for the the way its builti was going to say a sawzall (milwaukee) but thats out of your range. I would check out Ryobi. I have no first hand expierence with them but my angle grinder by Ryobi has held up great over the last 3 years of non-industrial use.
x2mine is a skill that i got on clearance, i have used the hell out of it for the past 2 years with no problems at all.
