RF45 too good to be true!

When I purchased my mill it came with an xy DRO and an extra scale the previous owner had ordered by mistake. I tried an igaging DRO on the quill without much success.
I finally got around to installing the scale and making an Arduino reader and display. It works fine except for the lcd display which doesn’t update fast enough to follow anything but a fairly slow movement. I might do something about that but for now it’s good enough.

I ordered my Ditron equipment directly from Ditron. Not the least expensive option, but at least you know what your getting. I read somewhere that some of the resellers are selling returns or what did not make it through Q/A. I will say the contact that was recommended to me at Ditron provided great service answered all my questions and I would not hesitate to use her again.

Previous to that experience I had to return a set purchased through a reseller on ebay, it was the complete opposite experience I had to involve ebay, I Iaugh about it now but it took a while to resolve and was bordering on the absurd.
 
Guys, a USED RF45 just sold on auction for 7800 CAD. Used.

So a price of " $4732 + $1500 shipping" is actually CHEAPER than someone paid for a used machine...

Heck at these prices one could buy in China, sell on auction and turn a profit!
 
When I click the link on the post that started this thread I get "that page cannot be found". I would like to have seen what triggered the discussion!
 
Are you trying to say that there's no mill coming?

it says that its shipped.


There's no mill is there? :(
