Found in the clearance section, so you'll have to check for stock in your area as it won't be available in some/many places. Hopefully helps some lucky punter though...

The home diy version green version is around that price, £57, this blue 'GOP250' is the version aimed above average DIY'ers and usually sells for £100 although has been £80 at Screwfix for a while - it's £96 at B&Q at the mo
I got one and am pleased with it, it's heavy but durable and well built and better built than the green version which has a nylon gearbox (this blue one has a metal gearbox) the cable is on a ball joint so shouldn't wear out too easily.
At £50 it's a steal and if you use Saxton blades via ebay which are much cheaper than Bosch's and nearly as good you're good to go.

I believe that there is one without accessories & fancy box, and the other has them.

I'm not saying it's a bad price but when I was looking for a multitool, I considered this one but I think the reviews said the switch is particularly poor and a lot of people said that it broke on them. I bought the Erbauer one from Screwfix for a similar price and it's been perfect.

Seems a great price, but can't find any in the country :disappointed:

Unfortunately another one of Screwfix's frequent ghost deals.

It is always the same! I am colour blind and can tell the difference between blue and green so why can't these other people. If B&Q/Tradepoint do sell it then go in for 10% of diff or 10% discount depending on staff member - guess they will sell (probably order it in from Screwfix...)

If you do get one Campbell Miller Tools have good prices for the LBoxx's then you just need to find the insert and you have a bargain. (you could probably get the LBoxx with insert if you phone CMT as they breat kits into parts.)
I would be tempted but I already have the 10.8v li version, amazing tools that you wonder how you managed without it after it does it's 1st impossible cut!
Been using it for a few years. Been great. Paid £100 for mine with accessories and LBoxx. Had issue with it when i lent it to an idiot mate who abused it. Bosch replaced it with a new one and even sent new accessories! 3 years warranty if you register it with Bosch.

You did well, my battery one was 13 months old and had seem some serious use, new motor and ECU fitted. It wasn't possible to turn it round any faster than they did, collected one day, fixed the next and returned the day after. Not often you get service like this so it shows you get what you pay for. I think the metal gearbox must be bomb proof.

Maybe with Tradepoint but in my experience B&Q and Screwfix won't match each other's prices because they're both owned by the same parent company
