Would you drive 40 miles one way to buy two used Ebo Jager 150w heaters for $10?

Thinking about doing this. Just need some encouragement from you guys. They are used Ebo Jager 150 watts at $5 a piece. Person had three of them but sold one already.

Let me know what I should do..I know Ebo Jagers are of good quality.
 
I would not.
 
go for it

break down what it will cost in gas and tolls and I think you could just buy new


Thinking about visiting a few LFS down at that area to make it more worth it but the thing is, everything is expensive or the shops don't carry items I like.
 
If it were me I would ask my self a few questions.

1) Do I really need these heaters, am I planning on useing them? or am I collecting more fish stuff simply because its a good deal?

2) Are the heaters in good shape? fairly new? or are the old and beat up?

3) Is it worth the drive? will I really be saveing money? Am I driving a rinky dinky gas sipper that gets 30+ mpg or an obnoxiously huge SUV that gets 5 gallons to the mile?

The first question is the most important, the second two will either back it up or shut it down.
 
i have drove further for more expensive
 
Well, if you add up the cost of gas and the $10, but could get'm for the same price in your area then you could save time and travel.

On the other hand, if you want to pick up the heaters and feel adventerous then their's no cure for it except to go...:naughty:
