Did I sell my Jet for too cheap?

Wow, I'd have paid $1000 easily. More if you had a blade with it.

No. IIRC those were a about $8-900. I think that's a very fair price for a lightly used tool. Too close to retail and prople will just pay a few $ more for support and warantees that come with a new machine.

hi edwin. if you are near raleigh N.C. there is a unisaw listed on triangle4sale dot com for 1000. just showed up today so it may still be available.

This weekend I picked up a Jet Hybrid TS for $650. Excellent condition. Only used occasionally for cross-cutting some balsa wood. It appeared that the owner didn't really know what he had. But oh well, gloats are made of this stuff.

. what a guy!!!! lol...

Unless of course you post it on eBay where people will bid twice the retail price.

That's nothing. I'd have paid $1,500 and thrown in a case of canned tuna.

That should read - fair price to me -

I don't know what you paid but that sounds like a fair price or me.

Just to clarify its not a unisaw - its a cabinet saw/contractor saw hybrid.

Same saw I have actually - good saw for what I use it for - never had any problems w/ it.

mp did say:

I'd pay $1700 and give you my wife's cats. No return of the saw or the cats.

this wasnt your add rob. but you may be correct as im not sure of the model number. here is a copy of the add. it looks like a uni. right tilting arbor saw. but ya never can tell. lol... it dont give hp rateing so ..........

I bought the new Jet hybrid saw for $850. Used it very lightly for a year and put an ad out for $800. I had someone give me a deposit within 2 days and he picked it up a few weeks later. Not sure what he was thinking but hey, it helped pay for the new unisaw.

Depends on how much you figure your time, dealing with 'tire kickers', is worth.

$650 is not a 'give away' price, although it is an 'attractive to the buyer' level (as you found out :).

Guessing you probably could have gotten $100 more, but it would have taken time, effort, and aggravation. "Peace of mind" _does_ have value. :)

That's always nice. I had a camper a few years back that I paid $500 for. I used it for a season and sold it in a day and a half to a lady for $3500 after telling her exactly what was wrong with it (broken heater, leaky roof). Some people are just foolish, I guess.
