content: This is so funny, mine is in like new condition as well. I've barely used it over the years, it is a shame. Have you used yours much?

content: I ceased to use it after i retired. But was a wonderful tool. Currently i dont move from home so i do not use anymore portable tools, except perhaps my Fluke124. I have many tools that are taking dust on the wardrobe. The interesting thing is that noone wants them.

content: For 1000€ I am not surprised nobody wants it. They're nice scopes but very limited in what they're good for.

content: The reason they are expensive is that these are industrial tools, not toy tools for amateurs.

content: Quote from: luis garcia on June 22, 2019, 03:32:39 pmI think the point being made is that their use is limited and they're fairly expensive when compared to other "industrial tools". If you have a use case for their specific qualities they can be indispensable tools.

content: Also most Industrial facilities that would need it are willing to pay that price from a refurb place or pay the extra to get new. And there are test equipment places selling the same unit for the same price or cheaper. And eBay is even lower priced for the same unitSent from my SM-G965W using Tapatalk

content: Quote from: luis garcia on June 22, 2019, 03:32:39 pmI had bought a 190-204/s complete used maybe once for $1500 USD before from a fellow Tech. I'm aware they aren't toys for amateurs but if you aren't using it and don't need it I'd recommend coming down on price a bit if you really want to sell it. If you don't really care if you sell it though you can just wait for the right buyer. Always fresh blood that needs tools.

content: In the last ~6 months there have been a number of auctions selling 199Cs where probably close to 100 units were sold and most ended up n eBay - see all recent sales.. next month and in August there are again close to 50-80 units for grabs... So your sale might be abit hard for the asking price..https://www.go-dove.com/en/events?cmd=details&event=502279&query=TQ3xL2229sk2kvaa2OrY0yk2kzCA0Qmh2GJyL-bhTy5DKGcg3OrW3-p8LTw2TQCaLa2ik2Cy2NRakUwQPz2V&&page=2&sort_column=event_id,lot_numberhttps://www.go-dove.com/en/events?cmd=details&event=502304

content: I did grab couple of pairs for 750 per pair in the past auctions (current Tek. calibration, almost all accessories, some with universal (not just US) chargers..). Not sure where all these are comming from, but some one is unloading few hundred of them.

content: I know fluke has some new industrial scopes with 4 channels and some fancy power quality software that have come down a long way in price maybe that's why people are unloading the older ones?Sent from my SM-G965W using Tapatalk
