Withdrawn Makita table saw, 2704, withdrawn unsold

[pe2dave]

Hobby use over 10 years or so. Full working order, a reliable saw.
Lack of floor space and 'advice' forces sale.
£450 including base with castors.

Now open to reasonable offers.

Hiya bud. Have you managed to sell this yet?

 

[pe2dave]

No, interested Ian? I just don't have the room for it.

 

[iansmith030]

I'm not even sure where you are in the country and I believe you are quite highly priced compared to what can be bought for that price; both new, or an older cast iron ....I've added some pics. Can I ask what you seriously would accept for it?

 

[pe2dave]

I'm in Peterborough, about 4 minutes off the A1.
I will come down to400 with the stand (on wheels) if you are serious.
Hobby (i.e. low) usage, I think it's a fair price Ian.

Apologies bud, but it's just too much and I'd say is the reason you've not been able to sell it. I am very serious, but with machines like the respected MLT 100 on the market at a similar price that comes with a guarantee and doesn't involve me doing a 5-hours return trip, I'll have to say no to your offer. Thank you for your time though and good luck. If you change your mind on your price, let me know.... I was looking more at the £250 mark. MAKITA MLT100N

With the greatest respects intended here, the MLT is no comparison to the 2704 which is also nearly twice its price!

Perhaps talking numbers is also best left to direct messages also....

Hello again. We won't have to talk pennies now as I decided to stop looking for a bargain and forked out for a new Dewalt DWE7485 . Good luck with your sale though.

Without wanting to aggravate anything - that Kity419 that was on ebay - I watched that to see how it did as I'll be selling mine soon - it sold for £450.

But let's not forget that you can't throw a kity in the back of the van daily and then up flights of stairs! This whole thing has been a case of comparing apples to oranges....
