In general, would you consider buying used power tools if the usage is for one project and after that would be rare and occasional use?
By means of used tools I mean something that is previously used and "look" beat up like those people sell on ebay. I don't mean original manufacturer reconditioned tools.
What are some pros and cons? To me if it's cordless I am worried about the battery.
And if you would consider it, what would a reasonable price point be? I have seen a new tool with free shipping on Amazon for $150.00 and someone is offering an equivalent tool that is all beat up with no battery no case no manual and it went to $79 with $30 shipping seems totally out of line to me.
