Need advice on local test equipment for sale

(1/1)

Hello,
I was browsing craigslist for equipment and actually found someone selling some within driving distance. From the looks of the listing http://nh.craigslist.org/tls/3077509061.html most of the equipment is somewhat old but would be useful for a beginner like myself trying to setup a bench. The posting is rather vague in terms of model numbers but I was able to find them using the pictures. I was interested in:

Insteck Function Generator $200 (GFG-8020H) http://www.gwinstek.com/en/product/productdetail.aspx?pid=5&mid=73&id=105
Insteck Oscilloscope $250 (GOS-620) http://www.gwinstek.com/en/product/productdetail.aspx?pid=3&mid=6&id=75
BK Precision Oscilloscope $150 (MODEL 1541A?)
Shewzhen Mactch DC Power Supply $750 (HY3005F-3) http://www.amazon.com/Mastech-TRIPLE-LINEAR-SUPPLY-HY3005F-3/dp/B004ISD7T6

The pricing seems rather high, however, I may be able to talk the seller down a bit. Does this equipment look OK, the scopes seem to have low bandwidth (should I go for a 100MHz scope?). I plan on purchasing a DSO in the future when I start working with digital circuits, but figured I'd get a CRO for analog circuits since there seems to be many recommendations to do so.

free_electron:
function generator 100$
scope 150$
bk scope unknown
power supply 100$

it's not worth more...

I think the prices are way too high. I'd look on Ebay with the 'completed listings' option checked so you can see for what prices similar equipment gets sold.
