Although most of our tools were bought new, we have gotten some great deals thru eBay (like our Ziad PHD and a brand new Harris TS22-ALO for the price of a generic buttset!). One of the problem with buying your tools from eBay is that you really have to be patient until you get the right deal...and you have to know enough about what you're buying. It amazes me how many people buy used power tools at almost the same price they could get it new from www.amazon.com.
A while back, when we were in the need for a rotary hammer drill we did very well with a company called Power Tool Services, a Milwaukee service center. They seemed to have a very good stock of factory refurbished/reconditioned tools. Their phone is 877-585-9328 and their site is www.powertoolservices.com. We bought a Milwaukee 5303 SDS Rotary Hammer Kit from them for $240. The case was a little bit beat up, but the drill was perfect and practically new, the chucks and such were brand new, and we got a factory warranty. New, the drill would have been at least $400. People on eBay were paying at that time close to $300 for the same drill, but used and without any warranty. Why?
