I expect them to call sometime in the next few days. --- End quote --- I've had good experience with TestEquity, and bought my 34465A from them. Ask for 10% off MSRP. --- End quote --- Great tip on the 10%. I got an email offer from TesEquity today for the 2018 Keysight calendar. I filled out the form indicating that I was interested in buying a 34465A. Maybe that will trigger a call. The sales engineer used to call me occasionally but I have not heard from him for a while. Maybe it is because I moved to a different region. --- End quote --- Today I ordered the 34465A with DIG & MEM options. I got the 10% off just by asking for a quote. I told them to not install the options just in case a Free MEM promotion appears and I can return the license. However, since they seem to be getting only batches of 35 meters, and I am in the second upcoming batch, there is probably no reason for a promotion at this point. I will probably not get delivery until mid-April. It will be a race between the 121GW and 34465A... --- End quote --- You could also grab a fully optioned 34470A for nearly the same price after haggling. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Keysight-Used-34470A-Digital-multimeter-7-1-2-digit-Truevolt-DMM-Agilent/192491189851?epid=2098135405&hash=item2cd15e765b:g:vVcAAOSw9t1athEt |

Well, that is interesting. I had checked the Keysight eBay store several times and never saw a 34465A or 34470A. This 34470A is $621 more than the new 34465A I have on order. Maybe I would have gone for it, but the 30 warranty is a bit worrisome, and I certainly have no need for the GPB option (I never want to use GPIB again...). I would not expect Keysight to haggle on eBay Store prices, but maybe they do? |

Based on experience, I'd be surprised if they don't give you at least 10% off. |

The 30days warrenty is a chance to take, but the DSOX3024T, I bought like this, haven't let me down yet and as it is ex-demo units, I'll take my chance on it and just hope it won't go :-BROKE |
