I started into electronics in December, but I never bothered to buy an oscilloscope because they're fairly expensive, but now I need to be able to see the signals that are happening in my project. I wanted to buy local to save on shipping, but I only found three somewhat questionable listings. All of them are about an hour's distance away, but I need to go in that direction soon anyway. I was just unsure of the quality of these scopes and if the prices are good for these models.
The listings are:
Two LBO-515B Oscilloscopes for 200USD (75-150 USD for one on ebay)
One INSTEK GOS 620 Oscilloscope for 100USD (50-500 USD on ebay)
No images listed, listed as new in box from 2000
A lot of Phillips scopes with one HP scope for 200USD (Unknown value on ebay)
Personally I'm intrigued by the first and last listings because of the images and the scope/dollar rate, but I really don't know what brands are trustworthy (I know tektronix, agilent, and other top brands, but they're expensive), and I'm viewing this through craigslist, which I don't have much experience with.
