I personally don't think my piece of mind would be worth that much. Buy hardware from a reputable source on E-bay or I have the number of an individual I had GREAT success with in California. They sell large volumes of hardware and I also have the number of someone for memory which you will need.
The hardware person goes under the name of BabyJake on E-bay and I have nothing but good things to say about them or the way they conduct business. You can call them direct and have them check inventory if you don't see what you want on E-bay. Contact me offline if interested for their number also. -----Original Message----- From: Shaun Stanley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 10:19 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Lab Equipment [7:40032] I'm planning on setting up a home lab and I've noticed that most places offer a 30 day warranty on used Cisco equipment...(usedrouter.com)... Tancom.net offers a one year warranty...they will swap out the defective piece for another working 'used' one... However, their prices are significantly higher than usedrouter.com... eg. UsedRouter.com - 2503 - 435.00 Tancom - 2503 - 695.00 on one hand I feel like the peace of mind is worth some more money but on the other hand, what is the likelihood there will be a problem...AND I won't be buying just one router, so the cost difference will be huge for the entire lab... What experience have others had with purchasing used equipment? warranties? etc? If the router does go bad and you have no warranty? what options are available at that stage? Any help greatly appreciated.
