Keysight has a STORE on Ebay?
« on: October 02, 2018, 03:07:57 pm »
This is a new one on me but I'm sure most of you knew this already.

www.ebaystores.com/keysight/?_trkparms=%26clkAid%3D7157533598369354920&

Used equipment straight from the manufacturer.
At least I'm still older than my test equipment

I have bought from them many times and each time was a great experience.
They are highly recommended by me!

Yup, it's been there forever.  I bought an MSO7104B from them a few years back but it came with nothing, no probes, no power cord, nothing; it also had only 30 days warranty but was calibrated - as you might expect, it's been a reliable and cheap way to get a class scope. 

You can usually offer them 90% of their asking price and have it accepted too.

Their ads show up a good bit at the top of the page here for me.  Keysight also has a store for non-Keysight gear called KeysightMV (multi vendor).

"Used" is often them covering bases, the refurb scope I just bought from them had clearly never been used.

Other than some shipping weirdness (DHLs fault mostly), and the long lead times (the "ships in 4 weeks" warning should be taken seriously), +1.

If they offer the FieldFoxes at the same prices they had recently next year I might pick one up.

Today I got my MSOX3104T, two weeks after ordering. Must have been lucky with the shipment. When you buy their Premium Used stuff it's no difference from new equipment: same warranties, all accesories and not a scratch on the casing.

The only thing I didn't realize until I got the scope is that the description, not the pictures, are what defines what you get; I just ordered a DSOXLAN card because it's not standard, and wasn't mentioned in the description. The pictures showed a scope with the LAN card installed, however ...

Overall it's great stuff, often at great value. Unfortunately they have many items that don't ship to where I live (Sweden), otherwise they would have had more purchases from me.

Take advantage of them offering the options you need at half price too(They often offer them at the same discount as the FieldFox itself).

I've bought from them a couple of times and can say got good service (I bought a generator and an infrared camera). They did claim to have sent the generator out to someone in the US (I'm in the UK) but they sorted out the mess quite promptly.

They are also open to offers, you can get another around 15% off depending on what is being sold - certainly worth trying.

But in the days I bought from them they had a separate UK ebay store, sadly they have shut that now so there is only the US one and you have to specifically check which items will ship to the UK so I look on it much less often.

Tektronix also have an ebay store but they don't supply the UK at all - but TTi (a UK Tektronix distributor) can sometimes supply similar offers.

Our eBay shop is pretty legit. Full (or extended) warranty and a pretty stringent refurb process. If I were buying gear from us, I'd 100% be checking the eBay store before going new.

^ yep, it is REAL. Bought my MSOX on there a couple of yrs back, asked and received a discount. It was a certiprime unit so fully guaranteed (same as a new unit) and with full set of new probes. I couldn't see anything on the unit that made me think it was not new.

Highly recommended!

cheers,
george.

What shipping carrier is used to send to Canada? (fingers crossed for USPS)

eww, why would you want USPS/Canada Post?

Everything I have ordered has arrived via Fedex, taxes are prepaid, it is hassle free.

Because you don't end up paying 3x the price in fees for USPS.

FedEx / UPS are fine if it's AIR. Those include the brokerage fees, so it shows up and you only pay the taxes. If it's ground, it's painful.

I figured if it's free shipping from them it's probably ground.

They use priority Fedex - and you pay the taxes when you purchase the item. It will arrive with nothing owing.

My recent scope purchase was sent DHL freight, duties excluded.

They may well change shipping services depending on the size, value and/or destination.

Yes, I was talking about Canada specifically.

Wow, didn't know Keysight made Audio Analyzers. Has anyone had experience with these  U8903A/B ? How does it compare with Audio Precision or Prism Dscope ?

Also is there a current link for the Tektronix ebay store ?

cheers

EDIT - I've just found the Tektronix link I had has ceased working - sorry. It must have been quite recent (in the last couple of months.

Not sure if it's the same store, but this one is operated by Tektronix:
