LarryEA Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 What price does a new Dewalt 788 go for now days? This guy wants $350 for used, without a stand. Thought I would tell him Amazon has new for $399 with stand. And Grizzly has them for $450 and I'll give him $175. He'll probably be insulted and not reply. Got nothing to lose I guess. Use it for backup and do what Jim Finn does. Set it up for inlay meantime. Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson's Woodworking Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I have seen a lot of them go for $200 to $250 LarryEA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I gave $250 for mine used, without a stand. LarryEA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjR Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I gave $400 even total for mine new in BOX with stand and the junk light! I would only give $175 for it or less. also would want to know WHY it is for sale! They are good saws; but my rule has always been used = 1/2 price-- Unless they are and very well show almost new condition! then maybe 2/3; but no more than that! There are others out there too.

Scrappile Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) I have one for sale on Graigslist right now, I'm asking $225. W/O stand. I have the stand that came with my EX and I'm offering it for an additional $35, The DeWalt can easily be mounted on it. I'll see how I do. Only have one interested person so far. I have to get back to him. I think some of it depends on where you live also. Around here there are not many scrollers. $350 seems pretty high to me for a used DeWalt especially without stand. P.S. Mine looks a lot better than that one: Edited November 11, 2014 by Scrappile LarryEA and wombatie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatie Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Scrappile's looks really good, what would the courier cost you to have it delivered to you Larry? Just wondering thats all. Marg LarryEA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Scrappile's looks really good, what would the courier cost you to have it delivered to you Larry? Just wondering thats all. Marg It's less than 20 miles, I'd pick up or he'd deliver. THere are three others within 50 miles on Craigslist ... 1) $450, 2) $350, 3) $325 I'm going to irritate them all... and offer $175 Never know what may happen. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NC Scroller Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 If it was a Type 1 and new or used very little I could see up to $300. A new or used very little Type 2 I could see about $200-$225. If it was used a lot the price would drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering thats all. Marg Courier would not cost me anything... It would cost whomever it was sent to . I won't take $175, I will keep it as a backup if I don't get what I am asking.

ike Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 THAT'S SOUND GOOD TO ME. AT 175 I WOULDN'T EVEN ANSER THE BID. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Well mine's gone. First person to look at it took it no questions. I had to ask if he wanted to hear it run. By th way, I said in my other post I was asking $225. Actually it was $250 and that is what he gave me. wombatie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryEA Posted November 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 You're all right, but wouldn't you drop the price by $40 to $50 without a stand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ike Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 AT $499TO $550 AS GOING PRICE FOR A NEW SAW AT THE BIG BOX STORES I DOUBT IF I WOULD DROP THE PRICE. BELOW $250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Mine went for $250 without a stand. The stand I had would have been an extra $35. He had a cabinet to mount it on. Mine did have a riser on it and I gave him all the blades I had that were not Flying Dutchman. Wilson's Woodworking 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Larry, I think $200 is a fair price if the saw performs well. I would not want to pay more for one on Craigs list.. I think $200 will get you a good one. Without the stand, still good. Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mort Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 I just paid $300 for one with the stand and light. Looks barely used at all, and it says made in Canada, does that mean it's a Type 1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCtoolguy Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I live in So. Cal. so everything here costs more but there are millions of people so things are way more plentiful. I bought a used type 1 with stand and light for $250. The table was a bit rusty but it cleaned up very well. Works like a charm and no wear and tear on the moving parts. I guess it really depends on the market where you live. If there are a lot of used ones, go for the best of of the lot. Anything below retail is good if it's in good to new condition.

dgman Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I just paid $300 for one with the stand and light. Looks barely used at all, and it says made in Canada, does that mean it's a Type 1? Yes, that's a type one. But it also means it's twelve to fifteen years old!

NC Scroller Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Yes, that's a type one. But it also means it's twelve to fifteen years old! I would rather buy a slightly used 15 year old Type 1 then a brand new Type 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
