Would you play the asking price? If so then you will pay $750-$900

Dont get me wrong, if you offer 500-600 they will jump at it.

Interesting timing of this one. I'm selling my Neos in excellent condition (about 1K frames) for $750. I think it's a fair price considering the price includes an extra new clamp and "dog kit". The only 2 things that ever wear out on these machines.
The price also includes delivery, set up, and a 1/2 hr orientation, not a lesson, those take 2+ hrs.

I'm supposed to deliver it tomorrow evening-

There are plenty of great deals out there, especially on CL if you regularly monitor them.

lynnbart · 12-03-2012, 06:22 PM

I plan to keep looking. I live in such a remote area that the 'net is my main source and chance...

Ronaldo · 12-03-2012, 06:28 PM

The Neos is OK but for the mounting system, and the clamping, and the ease of weaving crosses. And all of the adjustments.

They are tanks.
I only use mine for racquetball now.
I strung 1500 racquets on it before the store got a new one and was going to throw it out!
Yes, I got it free.
No idea how old it is. It was well-worn 6 years ago.
The tension head was worked on by Tennis Machines two years ago.
It still has problems, but it's kinda like having a child with special needs.
I love it, but it needs extra attention.

If you were going to spend that much anyways, you're better off buying a Wise 2086 Pro with a Table Top adapter.

I would buy one on the spot for 500 but cannot find one. Any ideas where to look (other than *Bay,Craigslist,Google)

lynnbart · 12-04-2012, 02:54 PM

The $500 range is kinda where I've been looking for also. Seems that many have found one in that price range, but so far I haven't.

Once you start getting to $750 and above, then add shipping, I might as well just buy a new one.
