SS authorized repair center

Post by jsburger »

Is there any such thing as a Shopsmith Authorized Repair/Service Center any more? I didn't think so.

This is from an eBay listing.

"The Woodworking Academy, Inc. is a factory authorized Repair/Service Center for all Shopsmith equipment."

The listing is item 191569442458 for a "manufacturer refurbished" Pro Planer.

I wonder if this should be reported to eBay.

Check the date on that 'page'. I believe it is 'current'.

That might be the most current page but that does not necessarily mean the information contained on that page is current.

You better run over there and check. The house at 828 Oceanview Drive is on the market.
