Machine Tools on ebay VS Craigslist
Maybe it's just me, but when I'm looking at machine tools (lathes &
mills specifically) on ebay & Craigslist, in general I'm seeing better condition items and better prices on Craigslist. My theory is that since Craigslist is a local listing service, and the buyer is going to check it out in person, there is less opportunity for the seller to mis-represent their goods. Ebay listings on the other hand give the seller an opportunity to ship goods that are often pieces of crap. I've been burned enough on ebay to know what types of items to bid on and what to pass on.
