How the deal verdict works

Real Deal

Priced well below its observed baseline and at or near the lowest price we have recorded.

Fair Price

Within the normal range of its observed baseline. Not a standout discount.

Inflated Discount

The price was raised recently, so the advertised discount only returns it to its earlier level.

Above Typical

Currently priced above its observed baseline. Waiting is likely the better move.

Deal badges and their rules

Badges are computed from recorded data with fixed rules. Each card shows at most two, in this order of priority.

Hot deal
Real deal at least 20% below its observed baseline.
Lowest price
Lowest price recorded in 90 days, with at least 7 observations.
Price drop
At least 8% cheaper than the price recorded 7 days earlier.
Limited time
The retailer itself labels this listing as a limited time deal.
Back in stock
Recorded as out of stock within the last 7 days, now available.
Best value
Top 10% score per dollar in its category (at least 5 tools with observed prices), and not currently priced above typical.
Top rated
ScoreMet overall score of 90 or higher.
New
Added to the ScoreMet catalog in the last 14 days.

Prices are Tier 4 market data in the ScoreMet verification model: real observations of public retailer listings, stored with the time they were recorded. We never invent a "was" price. When history is short, the verdict is labeled as an early signal and leans on the retailer typical price or MSRP. Read the full methodology.

Deal tracking questions

How ScoreMet records prices and labels each deal.

1 Are there real Makita tools deals right now?

Yes. As of November 15, 2026, 2 of the 20 Makita tools ScoreMet tracks are priced at least 10% below their observed baseline and near their 90-day low. The deepest is the Makita 18V LXT Brushless 1/2 in. Drill/Driver.

2 How does ScoreMet decide if a tool deal is real?

Each product price is recorded several times a day from its retailer listing. A deal is marked Real Deal only when the current price is at least 10% below its observed baseline (the 90-day median once at least 14 days of history exist, otherwise the retailer typical price or MSRP) and at or near the lowest price recorded in 90 days.

3 What is an inflated discount?

An inflated discount happens when a price is raised in the weeks before a sale and then "discounted" back to roughly where it was. ScoreMet flags it when the recent peak was at least 10% above the earlier baseline and the sale price is not meaningfully below that baseline.

4 When is Black Friday 2026?

Black Friday 2026 is on November 27, 2026, and Cyber Monday follows on November 30. Many retailers start early deals in the first weeks of November, which is why tracking prices before the event matters.

5 What does score per $100 mean?

It divides the ScoreMet overall score by the current observed price and scales it to $100. A higher number means more benchmark performance for each dollar spent, which helps compare a cheaper tool against a better but pricier one.

6 Does ScoreMet test tools in a lab?

No. ScoreMet is a quantitative product intelligence platform. Scores combine manufacturer specifications, independent published teardowns and benchmarks, verified buyer feedback, market and warranty data, and a calibrated scoring model. Prices come from observed retailer listings.
