My new $250 Compressor find

[BDBLK2K3]

I found this Compressor over the weekend on Craigslist , made the phone call , told the guy I was on my way to pick up MY Compressor .

Almost a brand new compressor , still on the pallet , 25ft hose reel , and water seperator all for $250 , I feel I got a great deal .

Now need to get it wired up , and pick up some hockey pucks.

 

[e-tek]

You feel you good a good deal???? You FEELyou got a good deal???

You damn-well STOLE that thing!!!! I've seen reels and seperators that sell for that much!!! Even thought it's a single cylinder unit, it's still a great unit at a heck of a price! And isn't that a retractable reel? Jeesh.

I don't really like the terminology...but have to say, you sir, "****"!!

 

[35mastr]

Yup,That was a steal.

What was the deal with it.The guy buy it and then just sell it right away?

Does not look to be ever used........

 

[BDBLK2K3]

He said he was moving and could not carry them .

The reel was hung out and would not go back in , works great now

Thanks Guys I feel like its Christmas

I'm going to run some airlines in the garage later, can I just put the seperator on and use like that , til I run the lines ?

Bob currently I have a filter hooked right to my compressor with the airline hooked right to that ( I do have $200.00 worth of copper and fitting and such and 2 new $23.99 hose reels ) . I will get around2it eventually .

Rick

 

[35mastr]

Yes and start running it.

That is what I am doing till I can run the lines.

 

[Jaguar Fan]

Yep. You officially ****.

Great deal! Enjoy it!

 

[catuck]

I paid over $800 for the same compressor at the depot several years ago. Great deal!

 

[gsport]

that should go real good with that new taskforce hose reel you picked up a couple of weeks ago...

 

[ddawg16]

No....you didn't steal it....he might have.....

Don't you just love Craig's list? It's all about the timing....

BTW....good score....very good score...

Oh...and E-Tek....nice avitar.....tell Ms E-Tek she looks hot....oh, wait, I can't say that about your lovely wife.....sorry.....tell her she looks quite stunning in that racing suit....

Excellent deal! I picked up the same compressor, also from a Craigslist ad, just about 1 year ago. Mine has a 2004 date on the pressure tank data plate, and is old enough to still have the made in USA pump on it.

Gave $275 for mine, without the separator or hose reel. Mine also looked as new - it had been installed in a closet in his semi-finished basement and piped with 1/2" PVC out to his garage (I know, I know, I'm not recomending it, that's just how he had done it.) I think the fellow was needing money, just by the looks of the situation.

I went ahead and put in the copper piping system I had been wanting to, and am very happy with the whole setup. I don't have a big blast cabinet, air grinder, or other major air hogs, but it handles everything else I have thrown at it with ease.

 

[goodfellow]

Best damn mid-size compressor on the market. You got an excellent deal --

BTW -- YOU ****!!!

 

[autoclassicnut]

Of all the luck! ... Good score! A guy might have to say that deal really " blows"

 

[Tech Guy]

Excellent score !

 

[Dragster Racer]

Yep. You ****. Really good deal for sure. Since I get to look at the picture E-tec has, he ***** too. For obvious reasons.

 

[38Chevy454]

Yes, very good score that should provide many years of good air for you. There are some good deals on craigslist to be found.

 

[StingRay]

I just had to put a new motor on my CH which is pretty much identical to that Husky. The motor on sale was 199 bucks. You STOLE it.

 

[squatch]

Great score!

The only way it would have been better is if it was a dual pump quincy on an 80 gallon tank with the controller box for $200 like my compressor find

Sorry, just had to rub it in.

I too love craigslist.

[BDBLK2K3]

Mine has a a 2005 date on the tag , pump says Made in USA .

 

[jay50]

Great find...and of course my obligatory "You ****"

 

[Torque1st]

Congratulations! I will not tell you that you ****, it would not be polite. You are a very lucky person.

 

[sierrascout]

Very good deal, much better than the other one you was lookling at.

 

[BDBLK2K3]

When your told you **** , it means you got a Great deal , Thanks guys !

Going to get it wired up today .

I have that same compressor I bought a few days ago actually.

It's 2 cylinder single stage. Around 10cfm at 90psi.

 

[hypnotoad]

Good find. Now that I've bought a new compressor, I'm sure I'll come across a great deal like that.
