used shopsmith

Post by oldc6 »

That one listed in minnesota. I picked up a 510 complete with
all the standard shopsmith equipment for $550.00 ..

It also included a DC300 dust collector with all the hoses.

510 and dust collector looked like they had been used very little.

When this combo was first on the list he wanted $1500.00..........

I picked it up and he said i had been the only caller. Most listers start
out with a price about triple what it should be.......

You should be able to pick a used one up fairly cheap. just have to keep
watching the list. offer one third of what they are asking and usually they
will two step a bit but, will accept it............:) :) :) :) :) :) a model 520 seems to be fairly hard to find on the list............

dust in picture

Post by oldc6 »

One more thing. Notice on the list that a lot of them dont
even wipe the dust off for pictures.

Sometimes it is even hard to locate what they are listing to
sell by the picture....

So, that is another clue as to what kind of people you will be
dealing with to buy...........:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
