I asked on the Rigol website for a DM3068 demo unit, as they advertise with it: "Request a Demo"...
https://www.rigol.eu/products/multimeters.html...and it is the only benchtop DMM, I am interested in. However, as it is +8 years old, I wanted to check the latest firmware, which is also very old, noise and the daily handling in gerneral for my own purpose.
Because I don't want to get a used unit when buying "new", I am no fan of ordering regularly and sending everything back within 30 days, as in this "pyramid game", one innocently trusting buyer is the fool! ...or does anybody believe, that they send back any returned unit???
Due to my request, I got an E-Mail from Batronix denying the possibility of a demo unit, but instead of the "advertised demo unit", they offered me a to buy the "Rigol DM3068" for 116 Euro above the normal price?! I should pay 810,84 Euro instead of 694,84 Euro?! I wonder, what they try to achieve with this kind of weird behaviour?
Anybody else with a similar experience?
By the way, I don't want to name the person from Batronix, but the "Special One" was too anxious to answer my response...for me, this is a total killer argument for any further relationship to this kind of "dealer", trying to take the mickey out of the customer by withholding information when being inexperienced! Never ever!
Cheers!
