    Nice! What did you not like about the HF? Is there anything not to like about the GG6?

    Re: Used DA polishers - what to look for?

    Whoa. That's some shady stuff right there. If the seller had bad intentions to sell stolen goods, he/she would've said anything to make the sale. I'm not sure how much more due diligence you could...
