It was never cheaper here in Germany, if you want decent hobbyist machines: band saw 1000eur, circular hand saw 500 to 700 bucks (not Akku), everything less is trash, good tools begin at the double, I got a mate in Spain, buying machines there, Euro too, but a third the price. I would've paid almost 2000 EUR for a decent small portable circular table saw here, bigger ones start at 8k. No inflation, just imaginary prices because too many idiots are paying up. There's always another way, nevermind how hard the greedy ones try.
