That's as good of a deal as you're going to get on that WEN. It just dropped to that price for the second time this week and I just bought oe myself. https://camelcamelcamel.com/WEN-3962-Two-Speed-Stand-Worklight/product/B016VD8GAA?active=price_amazon
Someone in this sub posted a quick review last week, too: https://www.reddit.com/r/woodworking/comments/67nna6/wen_3962_bandsaw_initial_setup_and_review/
The first one I bought was a 9 incher and it wasn't exactly great. I then spent a little bit more for the 10 inch WEN - it's been great. the fence is... we'll you're only spending 300 ish bucks... but it HAS a fence, and the base is pretty decent.
If you can swing a little more on your budget, I highly recommend it.

There was a WEN bandsaw review post on here not too long ago for their 10" bandsaw. At the time, I think it was just under $200, looks like it went up in price since then. The post was pretty positive about the saw: good features, good quality - for the price. For that price, don't expect a lot, but its a good bang for your buck tool.
I'm considering buying a bandsaw and a spindle sander in the near future. WEN makes both of these, and if I were to buy new, I would probably buy these. However, I would starting by lurking craigslist first.
I own and recommend the WEN 3962. It's got a full 6" resaw capacity, same as a 14" saw, and it has a 2-speed pulley to get the best of the small motor. And the price is a complete steal; it even comes with the stand.
