Yeah it's nice when you NEED them cause then Juliar helps pay for them.  A couple of years ago I needed this but sold it as I had to much on my plate to do it justice.  It cut good house stumps, this was a Tuart in Floreat

I recently needed to replace the Velcro pad on my Bosch green series random or Italy sander. Stupid machine had a tendency to chop out the plastic lugs on the back of the Velcro pads. Anyway I found  a Bosch blue series ros from my local Crime converters. It looks as though is has been used once. And it was only $50 more than a new pad. I also picked up a tti socket set they were clearing out. Upto 32mm met +at only $89. Seems ok to.
Nicer feel than my old Sidcrome set
