    Did I snag a good deal?

    Well, iv'e been looking for a decent carpet cleaner/extractor the last couple months. At the moment I don't want to purchase a Mytee because its winter and.. well you know.. SLOWWW lol. Waiting till late summer most likely.
    Anyhow, I found this browsing craigslist last night and thought.. hmm.. so I emailed the guy and hit the hay. Got a call In the morning and he said he has a bunch of other offers but no cash (yada yada). He got it for a gift from Christmas and has no use for it, unopened, and wanted less than half of what it costs at the store. I thought about it for a few minutes, and said why not? Drove 1hr 1/2 round trip to pick it up and i'm was quite happy, but would still like some opinions. *Cliff notes below*

    Item: BISSELL Spot Clean Pro Portable Deep Cleaner 3624
    Condition: Brand New
    Retail: 120.99-129.00
    Paid: 60.00

    So did I score a Auto Detailing Bargain or waste my time and money?
    Opinions are welcomed! Thanks!

    Well, in that case me to. The guy didn't look like a thief/crackhead/ect and was very polite. But looks CAN be deceiving I guess.

    I have a bissell deep cleaner as a back if my extractor goes down. I posted picks of a car I did using it one time.

    *You've done well. This tool will not only pay for itself but possibly for the Mytee as well.
    Read up on the pitfalls by utilizing the search feature here on the forums.

    * and a few threads on spot removal process and products.

    This hand may be useful to pm if in a pinch... I am still alive!

    Happy detailing...

    What exactly does a "thief" look like?


    Check for stolen items here..
    List, Find & Recover Stolen Property | Stolen911

    General rule of thumb: No one sells something for half of what it's worth if they actually know what it's worth.

    Good luck though, if its stolen its now documented.

    I think that's a good deal. I've come across stuff like that but all you can do is put good faith in the human race and go about your business.

    I just scored 1 16oz D300, 1 16 oz D301, (5) new 5" MF cutting discs, (5) new 5" polishing discs, and a meguiars w67 backing plate all new for $45. WHOOO!

    I'd say it was a good deal.
