I've looked around dozens of website where they offer refurbished
scopes....but it's a real pain in the ass to submit quote requests
to every one of them...

Is there really no reseller for refurbished scope which puts
a price tag on their stuff???

There are some resellers that will only do that in a relatively

private manner, and the price then is usually greater than the original
brand new price; how much higher depends on your perceived net worth as
well as perceived desperation to get a scope.

As the joke goes, if you have to ask the price, you cannot afford it.

I can't *stand* that myself. Just gimmee the damn price, instead of trying
to size me up first and forcing me to fill out those friggin' web forms.
Anyway, you don't have to ask for quotes here:

They also seem to be lower priced than others like Tucker and Test
Equipment Depot. Good luck on your shopping.

Probably for the same "reason" auto dealers want a haggling session. I
will never understand the purpose of that and I drove the dealers crazy.
At Mitsubishi we ended exactly where my initial offer was but it was
over an hour later and the guy said I might have given him an ulcer by
then. He did look quite stressed out at the end.

Anyhow, I just ignore those dealers. Sometimes I might try it if
painless. Guess what? They often don't answer at all. Talking about poor
salesmanship: I needed a digital scope >100MHz and 1Gs/sec. Found a nice
refurb, asked for quote. Quote never come, ordered a new one at Newark,
done.

Depends how you look at it : ebay.com pretty much ruined
fixed prices but it has opened a whole new portal to find products
cheap if you know what you are looking for *and* find a
trustworthy seller.
