Does that tick link to an identified unit and a written test list?
11pointsSerial in the advert. No serial on the tick sheet. Just 'checked, good'.
15pointsAsk for the unit-specific inspection report, including what was checked and the results.
8pointsAnd ask what refurbished involved. Cleaning, replacement work and functional inspection are different things. I would want the seller to describe the work, not choose a meaning for them.
11pointsAsked. They say cleaned and tested. No list of replacement work yet.
8pointsGet the controller and included cables identified too, because a reasonable arm price can become a much less reasonable complete setup once the missing pieces start appearing on your shopping list.
4pointsPendant pictured. Cable list absent. Asking for inventory before I look at collection prices.
5pointsAsk what collection price you'd actually be comparing, including packing responsibility. A bare arm on a pallet isn't a transport plan, even if the inspection eventually looks decent.
13pointsWill an independent assessor review the records before you commit to the machine?
7pointsYes. Need something useful to send them first.
9pointsSend what you have, even if it's thin. They can tell you which gaps matter for their assessment; you don't have to turn yourself into an inspector first.
12pointsFair enough. Sent the advert and tick sheet, with the missing inventory noted.
15pointsThat's enough to ask about scope, not enough to accept the arm. Also ask the assessor what they cannot establish during a visit. Better to hear those limits before paying travel.
13pointsDo you have one seller contact arranging access for that visit?
24pointsJo, describe your intended tool and block handling to the assessor as well, while keeping condition assessment separate from the later application design; a functioning used arm still needs a suitable complete installation.
13pointsSeller contact named. Assessor wants clearer identifiers and access details before agreeing scope. Still waiting on the equipment list.
21pointsHas the seller answered what they tested? I wouldn't let the new visit discussion make that original claim disappear.
23pointsI'd focus on getting an assessable package now. You may never get a useful historical test report. The question is whether the remaining uncertainty and price still make sense.
6pointsNo test detail yet. I'm not booking anything until the assessor can agree a useful scope.
11pointsI agree Jo needs that scope. I still want the seller's answer because inspected is part of what they are selling, even if the answer is that no report exists.
