Ouch! Heck of a premium...

>More than double the price for the single feature? That really puts the Jet VS in perspective. Especially considering it doesn't go slow (< 500), which is one of the main reasons to buy a VS lathe. With the price of the non VS so low, that Vega motor option (which does go slow) sounds a lot more attractive right now.
