What Would You Guys Do?
Permalink  
 


I just saw this air compressor new, ( http://pacificpowerequip.com/Air-Compressor.asp ) with the plastic still on it, at a local pawn shop. The guy says it's been there far too long and he's tired of moving it around. The tag on it says $700.00 He seems ecstatic that I'm interested in it and gives me a price of $400.00 to get it sold. What would you do? I've been in business for a while and have been bitten before from cheaping out on equipment. These are built in a plant 20 min. from my house but I believe they are built cheap. I guess I just need someone to talk me out of this cuz I'm luvin' this price!

What would you guys do??

Your not gonna hear me say run away. I would grab it at that price.

I picked up a 4gpm 4k psi belt drive PW awhile back that was at a pawn shop. It only had about 6-8hrs on it. I guess they didn't know what they are really worth cause the price on it was $336. something. I couldnt load it into my truck fast enough. She is still kicking arse today. Sometimes you just get lucky! This may be your lucky day.

Seems that at worst case scenario, you'll get your money back from it in just a weeks worth of washing.

Offer $350.00, he may go to $375.00. If not pay the 400.00. Thats a good deal. I use to work in a pawn shop years ago. We always made deals on old items, even if it was at a loss just to get rid of it.

What Larry said sound good. I jumped on a lil grocery getter truck.

Yesterday, running around, It started slipping gears. Was in big truck today. Was gonna wash monday, but I gotta take care of some more BS with the county.

Henry said he never buys nothing used. He got the money! I bought a used burner from him! lol!!! He checked it out. That trailer is not ready yet.

I'm hoping just a trans filter kit, fix it!

I'm sorry. Lot of things going on right now.

I'd rather find the PWer he found than what you found. I'm still 12 volt.

If Larry Millette said do it, Do it!
