Where You Buy Used Spray Foam Rigs for Sale Makes a Big Difference
Unfortunately, there are a lot of scams out there, and you can get burned if you are not careful. Buying from eBay or classified sites makes it difficult to know what you’re getting — and often offers little recourse if you get a lemon. You may not get a straight answer about condition or maintenance, or you may have to travel to check out the equipment in person and have an expert test it out for you.
It is easy for a seller to put a picture online, but it may not be the actual equipment. There are horror stories about people buying a piece of equipment based on a listing only to discover they got a different model and the seller had disappeared.
Even the reviews on sellers may not be what they seem. The folks at Google have said they blocked or removed more than 170 million reviews in 2023 that were fake or violated policies — a 45% increase from 2022.
