There are two ways you can buy used treadmill
First: is to approach private sellers on auctions sites like EBay. EBay’s sellers are fanatical about their reputation so they make sure that what they sell has a good quality.
The second option is to go to a specialist dealer. These dealers recondition the high end and commercial models and then sell them with a significant discount.
The most important thing when buying a second hand treadmill is the warranty. Because it is upheld by the manufacturer and not the retailer, buying privately invalidates any time left on the warranty. Many second hand retailers offer their own warranty so try to negotiate for this item if you see they don’t offer it in standard package.
If you buy from a private person ask questions like: “How much do you train?” or “Does you entire family does exercise?”. If the seller is a serious trainer you may not want to buy his machine. Try to have a pleasant conversation with the seller and ask questions like those while studying the treadmill. If you pay attention to the answers you can figure it out if that treadmill will be a good buy or not.
Also you should read the reviews about the model you want to buy. If the manufacturer offer life time warranty on motor it means that is a solid piece.
Our recommendation is to go to a dealer. They have specialized technicians that recondition these machines and in plus they should offer a warranty.
