I've passed over several ebay listings dozens of times, looking at this base model selling for over $8000. Well, listed, not necessarily selling. Scopes are located in China, show what look like new boxes but who knows. (I haven't posted link because there are several and they could change)
But this morning, my suspicious mind asks ... why did Keysight shut down the ebay store? (we repeatedly bought tens of thousands $$ from it) AND, where did all those virtually new scopes go?
Anyone else have a suspicious mind? Was there a sellout or worse, an ongoing buy/sell arrangement to keep Malaysian operations trim.
If so, we all lost. Solid little scope with same build quality as its $25k siblings and very "upgradeable".
added: Beijing Oriental Jicheng Co (destination on boxes) has been a Used-Line dealer since 2001. Just saying.
