Got her on Ebay, $185 shipped. The best price I could find online was $244 w/o shipping.

 

Wow Gary. What machine don't you have?

 

I think somewhere along the line, I have aquired a polisher fetish.

 

Nice! Cheap find!!!

 

LOL it sure seems that way.

 

Nice! I scored my Metabo for $210 new shipped a few months back

 

Nice, I was looking at a Makita on Ebay... Maybe one day

 

Where did you guys find these prices?

 

Just happened to be in the right place at the right time on EBay with a "Buy It Now" listing.

 

Man that's a sweet deal and you got a backing plate too..ur..did you get a backing plate with the Metabo?

Your going to enjoy the Metabo :thumb: It's quite the machine :applause2:

 

Nice find BD!

 

Just the polisher Nica. But at the price I bought it, I can always get another backing plate.

 

BTW, whatever became of the Hitachi from the STL GTG? I remember trying to give it a whirl and it started acting up.

 

Man for 185 I would get another one

 

I still have Hitachi #1. I have to get it in for some warranty work.

 

I jumped on this one as quickly as i could.

BTW: I registered it on the Metabo XXL site whichs gives me a 3 year warranty.

 

whats the diff between makita, metabo, etc. Whats the best?

 

I have had many rotaries over the past years. All have good and bad points. NONE are "perfect".
My best advice if that if you haven't used a rotary before, try a few out before you buy one. A lot of rotary polising has to do with how the machine feels to you. To answer your question directly, the best is what you feel comfortable with, not the price of the machine.

 

Thank you and good find. I have a older makita but i prefer to use a pc. Im thinking i am going to jump to a air polisher.

 

Well said Black Diamond, well said :applause:
