Agreed,
and, I have changed the brushes on a SIP 12 inch cross cut mitre saw.
Repalcement brushes sourced from China,
as such low value/cost items fell foul of SIP's standard delivery charge.
(Toolstation offered it for just over a ton a few years back.
Not great for precision work, even with a better cutting disc,
but fine for gardening work).
On the other hand, brushes can be replaced (granted that's probably not relevant here).
