I am going to buy a fixed base router for permanent mounting in a table (for those who read my crazy idea, I gave up on making an overhead mount).
After looking over reviews and specifications, i decided the Milwaukee 5625 would best suit my needs. Problem was cost. Then I found it advertised at a very reasonable (maybe unbelievable) price at ToolKing. I have never ordered from them and they are more than 100.00 under Amazon. Are tyey legit. Does anyone have experiences with them they can share. Thank you in advance

I've see ads for them on the internet. Check the print carefully, most of the time they are right around amazons price unless it is a remanufactured. They do see a lot of remanufactured stuff, especially bosch and Porter Cable. If it's that low, its probably a remanufactured.
I have not had any dealings with Toolking so I cannot comment.
I purchased my 5625 from http://www.heavydutytools.net and found their black friday sale price the best I could find. Currently they are ast $285 including shipping.
Hope this might help.
THANKS TO YOU AND DDAY
Thank you for the advice and the reference to the site. I have not visited it before and I marked it for future reference. I got "tool craze" and could not wait to order, customs clearance etc. So, today I went to a nearby town where they have a pretty good tool store and I bought a Milwaukee 5616. It has all the same features but is 2.5 vs. 3.5 HP. I am fairly sure it will do the job for me, just a little slower is all.
I have purchased a number of DeWalt reconditioned items from them directly (not thru Amazon). I have never had a problem. Some of their prices are very good, but be careful I have bought items they sell at Woodcraft cheaper then they sell for. I would recomend the reconditioned tools, I have 4 I use heavily and not a single issue. I hope this helps!
I bought a Makita Hand Drill from them. No problem. (Reconditioned).
I have purchased from them a couple of times and have had no problems. I think they are even an Amazon retailer.
