Does this sound like a good deal?

How can you demo a saw for 20 hours? Seriously.

 

It will have loaned to different clients, prior to them deciding to buy one or more, councils etc, I would expect.

I picked a 661 up at the last exhibition we went to. I put it down again quick it was heavy

Maybe its lend out demo ?

I guess how has it been used/demoed would be one of the questions alongside warranty query.

Spose.

 

for the sake of £220. I'd get the new one.

Do you even lift bro?

 

Ah sorry - just kidding. If you are in this business you are probably a load stronger than I.

 

Thankfully it will be sat on a Logosol for 90% of its working life.

I've bought a few ex-demo saws (and cars) over the years, they have always been with full warranty and been a good saving, I've never had a problem with any of them.

 

If you think about it, the saw will probably been checked very well before it first went out as the dealer wants it to perform well and impress. It is then returned and will be checked again before being sent out. So you will struggle to find a saw thats had more professional attention in its first few hours of use.

 

So a demo saw may actually be better than new.

Thanks again Skyhuck. Brilliant beta. Hope I haven't upset the guy who said they were heavy!

Good point there.

 

You often get teething problems with stuff when brand new.

Buying nearly new from a trusted source for a good saving could be worth while as long as its not been abused.
