Amazon has some very good prices on Milwaukee router bits, check them out. All Milwaukee bits are made by Freud in Italy, they are the same.
Check out http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CSSF3O/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ARGKZ1TK0K0C7 @ $2.59, why buy Chinese crap when you can get these?

WOW! Those are pretty good prices!
... and especially for the quality!

1/4” shanks though…

If you’re buying something else at Amazon, good time to also get these, and get FREE shipping!

Thank you.

In case it matters, be aware that the given demensions for the bit are the total length from the end of the shank to the tip of the blade. You aren’t buying a 2 1/2” cutter.
Now with that said, these are some blowout, ridiculous prices for a darn good tool. Amazon was practically giving Milwaukee bits away about a year ago. I bought a couple Milwaukee 2 1/4” (cutter length) x 1/2 straight bits with 1/2” shanks for $4.99. My ony regret is that I didn’t buy a dozen.
Looks like I’m buying a few more router bits. Thanks Rex.
