Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Hmmm wish I had the money right now. I should save up for one though.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

The "with severe external cosmetic damage to all panels of the unit" in bold worries me...

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

It would just go in my basement anyways. Great price. Wish I could buy one right now!

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

:tpd:

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I didn't read the bold print, haha.
Yah I would rather save and buy a new one.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Yeah that was the no deal for me. The last ones were $120 for zero cosmetic damage.

Shame I would have snagged 2 of these, maybe 3.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I definately don't need any that rolled down a cliff. The price is killer, for sure.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Was going to get one but glad Adam read the bold parts.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Precisely my thoughts too Bill.

I don't mind a minor scratch here and there, but "severe cosmetic damage" to "all sides" and "we can not provide pictures".

Uh, yeah. Pass. I don't need a hangar queen.


But I do want to add that even if their disclaimer on this particular one makes me want to stay away, I really appreciate Forrest looking out for us on this, especially since I never received the automated email from compact appliance.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Oh definitely it's good he posts these all the time or I would have never gotten my first edgestar, I couldn't thank him enough. So I ordered shelves from him :D And every edgestar I get he'll find more Pm's for addition shelves.

I hear ya, cosmetically scratches don't bother me. Hell I'll end up putting a few on it in no time.

They are probably already there, but I don't notice :sh

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I bought on the last S&D sale. Only thing wrong was it was missing the handle.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Times like these I wish I had some dough, nice find Forrest.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I bought my 18 bottle, smoked glass door, dual zone,
S&D Edgestar from them 2 months ago. 129.00 delivered.
All the dents were around the back sides and rear caging.
A little scary to look at but it works like a charm.
I couldnt be happier with it.:noon

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Guys, it always says severe cosmetic damage.
Some have a few small dents, but if things are tight in the wallet,
this is the way to go if you have expensive cigars that deserve
a good home.
They wouldnt be listed if they didnt work like new.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Art, I'm curious how you seem to have such extensive inside knowledge of the exact condition of all the damaged products being sold by the vendor.
Are you offering a personal buyback guarantee since the vendor explicitly states "are not eligible for a "buyer’s remorse" return."?

Regardless, it's moot point for this particular sale anyway:

"This item is currently unavailable.
Submit your email address to be notified when it is available."

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Not really. They just changed the link.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Thanks for the updated link.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I am not vouching for any items, i am just saying, they are all in
good working order.
If you go to the site, see clearance in the upper
right hand corner, they have open box units,
s and d units, its pretty cool if you cant afford a new one.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Well I went ahead and gave it a try. I have been looking at getting a cooler anyway and figured for a little more money I could risk grabbing one of these. I will post some photos once I get her in. And of course Forrest I will be in contact soon once I figure out how I want to put the insides together.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Im getting very tempted to order one.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I think the last link was not S&D. I think just open box. Only like ~$20 more.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

It is up again but under a different link I believe.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Cut some laminant of your choice and some spray glue to cover a host of sins.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I am not worried about how it looks as this is likely to reside in a closet. I am just worried about it working. There are many ways to correct how it looks on the outside. 99$ shipped is great. Guess we will see.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

sweet just bought one of these I'm excited about it.... :) now where can i see some other hook ups?

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

If my commission check comes tomorrow, I'm buying one.

We should start an edgestar thread for all of us when we get them in and get them loaded and take pictures.

Kind of a support thread as we get shelves and trays and the humidity set and the Edgestar loaded.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Just ordered mine :)

It takes a few days for the humidity to settle
after u put the beads in. Shilala showed me.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

They ship From Tx. So it takes about a week.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

This "Scratch & Dent" product is in good working condition. Each unit is a fully functional
return item with severe external cosmetic damage to all panels of the unit

I wonder how many of you scrolled down??
Maybe 99 bucks is still too good a deal to pass up. But what if it won't even seal properly?
Ehh...I guess cosmetic is the key word.

I swear though, if I was not in a "let's get RID of all the chunky, clunky, over-sized crap in my life"
mode, I would def be picking up one of these. If for nothing more than my Cohibas and other first-
line items. I'd need a dozen of these damn things otherwise.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I took note of it, and it was pointed out on the first page. It will most likely be tucked away in the basement or a closet, so I don't need it to be pretty. They listed it as a fully functional, warranted item. That was my primary concern.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

You cannot see the dents on my unit
unless you walk around behind it, so it could be in view
of guests if i so desire. I will be getting another one soon.
I hope its just as easy to look at as this one.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Yeah with all the bold it was hard to miss. They say the units still function with the factory warranty as well. I could care less how it looks as this is not for display just for storage. I have shipment confirmation so I will post pics when it comes in. The seal was my concern as well but for 99 bucks I felt safe in taking a chance as it seems that all the scratch and dent items had the same warning.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Compact Appliances tests all of the units for FULL functionality BEFORE they ship.

I bought an open box Edgestar 28 from them and when I didn't get it a week later, I called and inquired. They apologized and told me the unit that I was supposed to get failed their inspection and testing and they were just waiting for another open box unit to be available.

For my inconvenience, they offered me a brand spankin new unit for $130 ..... shipped. :noon:noon:noon Needless to say, I jumped on it. It took three days to reach my door. It now sits in the spare bedroom, filled with drawers, beads and sticks !

Compact Appliance rocks :banger:banger.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Well it showed up today. I was a little concerned when I saw a hole in the side of the box but once I opened it I was relieved. Here are the pictures of the obvious scratches and dents.
Here is the front pic.
Attachment 10023

The first is the bottom left front door. Some deep scratching.
Attachment 10021
This is the top left front door. Just surface scratches.
Attachment 10022
This is the hinge side panel with small dent and scratch.
Attachment 10024

The only pic of a dent that I did not include is on the back but I could not get it to show up. Hope this helps anyone who wanted to see it.

I just did the initial clean with some oxyclean and windex to get the inspection stamps off the glass. Let it sit outside for an hour to dry and then did a baking soda wipe down. I now have some baking soda sitting in the unit while it runs to test the mechanics of the unit. So far it seems to be cooling ok. Room temp is 74 and the inside temp on the coldest setting is now at 55 after 2 hours running.

Got my beads in yesterday and have them in a cooler now. Any more advice on setting this up is more than welcomed.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Plug the drain.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Set the temp where you want it, 64, 66.
Yes plug the drain, i calked mine.
Put in some boxes, and beads and dont open it for a day or so.
Then take a reading. Keep a hygro inside one of the boxes and also
in the unit.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Guys, CA changes everyday, new open box and dent items.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I just called to check on mine, I was told it was going through an audit check to make sure it was functional and it should ship today. I'm looking forward to it. OK, so I need to order beads and shelves/drawers. So can someone give me the website or contact info to order each please.

Thanks,
Jackie

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Placed a call to Forrest and 2 lbs on Shiala Beads on order. I have another question, does anyone use a remote hydrometer (spelling?). I have been using one but it's no longer made and I'm in the market for a new one. Basically the base sits on my office desk and the other part is in the humidor or will be in the winedor.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

That wireless hygro sounds pretty sweet! I'd love to buy one too!

I just called on mine as well. They are supposed to give me a call back shortly. They said it has been in the warehouse for a while, but they just switched locations of where they ship S&D stuff, so maybe there is a processing issue. Hopefully it ships today, as I'm getting rather excited for it to show up!

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

If I am seeing this correctly for about $300 I could buy:

-Edgestar 28
http://bewisebuyers.com/19-90-large/...r-platinum.jpg
-Humidity Beads
http://www.shilalasbeads.com/images/eight_bag_sm.jpg
-Cedar drawer system
-Cedar shelf
http://www.wineadors.com/sitebuilder...g.w180h241.jpg
-2 Digital hygromters
http://www.shilalasbeads.com/images/hygroset.jpg

and this should cover everything I would need to make a winedor?

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Yup. Just add cigars and your good to go.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

:tu

Yes, but you don't have to spend $300 on even that if you look about. Just depends if you really want drawers or not. I have one with 5 draws and a shelf and another with just a shelf. The latter is all boxes. Both do their job perfectly.

The only real requirement is the wine cooler and beads, the rest is fluff.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

I bought a wireless Meade TM005X-M from Amazon and it's been working great.

Re: Edgestar 28 just $99 in scratch & dent!
 

Beads ordered, now an order of drawers ordered from Forrest... sweet I'm excited.

Oh and got confirmation that my Edgestar is enroute.
