content: I'll be honest, i'm in need of money.That's the primary reason I need to let it go.TDS7254B 2.5GHz , 20Gs/s scope, with a twist.Unlike many being sold on ebay and such, mine comes coplete with probes and adapters, as ready to go system. Included are 2 x TCA-BNC, 2 x TCA-SMA, a couple of used single ended active probes up to 6GHz(when i'm back home provide pics and complete list), and brand new 3.5GHz differential probe. Changed the HDD with SSD, will include original of course.Open to offers, what do you think a fair price would be?

content: 2.5k to 2.9 K usd for sureWith tca adpaters in the 200$ usd each and active probes $$seems to have a recent last year cal stickerBUT in the end It depend if you find any future buyer ...Pretty darn cleanMy only concern would be the NVram / Dallas state ...

content: I'm not up to date on pricing, but I'd think the active probes are worth more than the scope and would think you can get more selling separately since people looking for a 12.5 GHz diff probe probably won't be looking for a 2.5 GHz scope.Try searching eBay for sold prices (not unsold listings) of these or similar VPI probes.

content: for sure but, having incomplete scope could hinder the sale a bit ??sure separate things could bring $tca adapters normally goes in the 150-200$ usdprobes for sure in very good conditions lots of $ tooIn the end scope is left ... alone+/- 1 to 1.5 k ? you find damaged ones for theses prices, shipping outside Canada can be costly as ususalyeah see Ebay's for some references, price them slightly lower 10-20% to gain traction / interestsDepends if the OP want fast sale(s) or not, patience could be good too lollgood luck

content: Checked ebay pricing of sold listings, scope in unknown condition as parts only sold for $1500~$1600, new p7330 sold for $999, used probes from $250 ~ $650 depending on the condition.I think that $3000US for the whole lot should be fair price.What do you think?

content: i would say boost slightly the price for Ebay Fees / Paypal fees in Canada you loose at least 15% for a transaction + around 4-5 % paypal feethanks our @% governmentAnd easily 100-200$ shipping fee for sure, at least 2 inches of innard protection wall / thickness, it will be a big box

content: Quote from: alm on July 20, 2023, 11:16:35 amI only bought this 12.5GHz probe because was listed as woking but showing levels twice as big as it should, it didn't matter to me.That's why I really dont count it as valuable item. Yet it's still perfectly usable if you work with usb2 signals lets say.
