Not sure about where you are, but the price difference is about 120%... ( 70$ vs 220$NZD)

Depends on the application too, lopedogg. Whats it being used for? slits down both sides of the pipe, or just one?

If you want it beautifully straight, a cutting wheel may be a bit of a pain - cheaper alternative is a hacksaw, but after about 250mm you'd have to take the blade out and do it by hand, which can be time consuming (and hard on the arms)
