    anything electronic that’s 7 years old, is a POS. even if he sells it for $200

    buy yourself a new snazzy pair of running shoes instead, and get some fresh air – if you’re active you should buy a new pair of runners every 6 mo’s

    plus old models of treadmils are nothing but junk anyway, and $1800 for a brand new treadmil isn’t that much anyway. If you’re looking at buying a used one, go to a gym and see if they have any used equip for sale. Most home treadmills aren’t that great. The track on them are usually short, and there’s not much any shock absorbancy.

    wow, 1800.00, just sold my proform for 300.00 and it cost me 599 new, and it’s a couple years old, that’s pretty steep on the 1800 one, hope he’s not taking advantage of you. and If it’s been used, you better check the belt, and if it hasen’t the belt is probably dried up,…….good luck, why don’t you just get a new one with a warrantee?

    It would be a waste if you stopped using it!! That’s what most people do. It becomes a very expensive clothes rack. But if you really need it there are other options to purchase one. Try a tag sale, I see loads of them that people no longer use. Or try your local newspaper. Good Luck!

    PS … May the forces of evil become confused at your door…
