The Israeli's do it again!

Not sure that this can still be called an "oscilloscope." Maybe an oscilloscope case  . Just like the smashed Keithley 2015.

LOL!    For parts?  What parts?  There's a tube and a chassis.  Wow.

You missed the four screws holding the tube...

I threw away a 2430 that was in the same shape, except I kept the circuit boards.

Come on,
They would never mistreat equipment, they just use it to death

I always wonder how that equiptment ends up in that condition...

[peter.mitchell]

Actually, rf_parts is a good Israeli seller, he doesn't sell broken crap at crazy prices usually, the same cannot be said for other Israeli sellers though...

[pickle9000]

If it was relisted as a "boat anchor" maybe it could be listed in "working condition"

Can you buy a spare vfd and case from keithley?

No, i don't think so however, i do believe keithley use the same vfd on multiple units, so finding a spare shouldn't be hard. As for the case, ehh, only cosmetic.

Still, 250 bucks for that smashed up thing? You can buy a new one for close to that!

I'm not sure what the new price is, but I do know that my second hand ones are listed on ebay at £315. If they'd have asked $100 for it then I'd probably have bought it, there are enough useful spares in there to be helpful.

Not quite as bad as the "totally harmonically distorted" DMM someone linked to on here a while ago.

I listed the "totally harmonically distorted" meter. I prowl eBay's for parts/not working.

One seriously abused meter.

Do they ever sell any of these ?

It is bloody expensive.

[SeanB]

If it was $3.99 and shipping was $10 I would buy it.

If you look at their completed listings the do seem to sell most of their items. Admittedly $130 for that Fluke or $399 for the HP PSU is fantasy territory but a lot of the items are merely well work.

Some, however not even robrenz could restore.

It looks more like they use their equipment for target practice...

Oh shit, I know that bastard, fortunately uses the same ugly page layout all the time, so I certainly won't buy anything from him ever again.

 A few years ago, I bought a used 85662A display section for a 8566B spectrum analyzer that was described slightly used and 'unable to test' and looked really nice from the outside. The inside looked as if it had a swim in the dead sea, salt corrosion everywhere, total loss. But not a single word or photo in the description about that.
