What should I ask before collecting this inspected FR5?

A refurbished FR5 looks affordable for our polymer-puck transfer proposal. Seller says inspected. I have no scope or findings yet. What would make an independent visit worth paying for?

Ask for the package identities, inspection scope, findings and work performed first. Have your prospective assessor review those and state what they can check before you pay for travel or collection.

Seller supplied arm and controller identities and a startup checklist. No pendant identity or repair history. I sent the gaps to the assessor with the offer price.

Did the assessor return a useful scope and cost, Dinesh? The missing history may limit the conclusion, so I would want that limit stated before booking.
