When I have the money!
Really, I have a list of machines & other tools I need. I shop a lot for a long time on expensive machines. 2nd hand machines are for the most part good buys. Recon power tools are in my humble opinion a "better" buy than a new tool. A new tool travels down the assembly line while a recon gets disassembled checked fixed & reassembled by a person. Thank about it as a hand made tool.
Crag's List seems to work. E-Bay however seems not to save that much money. I even see folks get caught up in the bidding and pay more for a used tool than a new one cost.
