Looking at Dewalt on Craigslist

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.

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.

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:

Scrappile's looks really good, what would the courier cost you to have it delivered to you Larry?  Just wondering thats all.

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.

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.

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.
