Certified pre-owned

[Daugherty_16]

Has anyone purchased the certified pre-owned from skytrak? They are $500 cheaper on the site. Wounder if what the downsides are to it or if I should just by new.

Had mine (certified pre-owned) for almost a year. No issues. To me, it either works or it doesn't work. And a product like this doesn't really have wear and tear, other than maybe the battery, so I wasn't too worried about it.

I bought one in feb of this year. I have had great success with it and the system looked brand new when delivered to my house.

I'm not in sales (and probably for good reason), but I wouldn't have any hesitations about buying a certified pre-owned SkyTrak.

Just got mine today! Surprisingly UPS had treated it rather poorly during shipping and both boxes were beat up bad. I shook the unit and it didn't make any rattling so I figured all was good. Paired it to my phone and it works fine! Going to the range tomorrow to test it out! Pretty excited and will keep you posted! Hard to pass up at $500 off and a free case to boot!

[Daugherty_16]

Good to know. Meatmiller that's what I was thinking save $500 and a case (even if it's the plastic one). Having a hard time finding a down side to it

My only reservation is you can't get an extended warranty....Would like some type of warranty. Thoughts???

[penrose]

generally speaking extended warranties are a waste of money for you the consumer, but a great revenue stream for the company. Really with electronics. I did not get an extended warranty on my skytrak.

I purchased a Certified factory refurbished unit last month. It looked perfect and runs fine. Plus....when I checked my account on sky golf, it shows that I have 6 months of warranty on it. Basically, at the price I paid for the refurbished unit....I got the game improvement package and metal case for free. Pretty easy decision I thought.

Any idea what the cost is to send one back for repair??

[qwiklap]

This seems like a great deal. Any idea if there are other coupon codes available? Or any other discounts that stack?

I've looked and nothing. Chatted with them on Thursday New Skytraks will be on sale in September...for that kind of coin I'd like a little warranty other than the six months on a certified factory refurbished and no extended warranty available.

What did they say about the sale in September? Is it the usual $300 off -- or something more compelling?

Trying to make a call in buying now or waiting. I think I am ok with the 6 month warranty (which would be doubled by my CC). If the unit breaks -- it should either DOA or have issues early on I would think. It's all solid state after all right?

Edit: Just checked (and it took some looking) but it looks like the new units only have a 6 month (or 25K strike) warranty.

[NVONEPUTT]

They wouldn't give any details on the sale. You can purchase an extended warranty for $99...Winter is coming and I'll be using it nightly...Piece of mind I guess.

When you say new... do you mean the same model or will they have a different model in September?

[NVONEPUTT]

Same model just some sort of sale on a new unit.
