If you intend on doing any type of "ripping" is should be done on the TS with a good rip blade. Miter saws are for cross cutting not ripping. Please read any all manuals with your tools, don't use them for something that they aren't intended for.

If you want to go a cheaper route.... use a circular saw and a fence/straight edge, this is an easier setup than you may think.

If you are intent on getting a miter saw, check amazon, they have used and new, prices probably equal that of ebay but, you never know til ya check it out.
