    Porter Cable for cheap...

    I went to that pawn shop right down the street from where i work.

    They have a pretty beat up PC 7424 fro $35.

    I don't NEED a polisher, as I have a FLEX 3401 and a harbor freight DA polisher that's still kicking.

    But, as a man who believes HE WHO DIES WITH THE MOST TOYS WINS, i'm wondering if i should make an offer.

    What would you guys do ?

    Nah, you don't need it. PC vibrates your hands like riding a motorcycle.

    Sure. Buy and put a carpet brush on it.

    Absolutely! Offer them $20-25 and put a carpet brush or tire scrub brush on it like Mantilgh said. I still use my old PC 7336 to apply waxes and sealants too.

    Offer $20 like Paul A. said, then sell it for $40-50 on CL.

    Boom. Instant $20-30 for spending on more care care products.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
