I bought a 1 yr old 1023SL with a Mulecab sliding table, a Freud dado set, several Freud blades, and an Incra miter gauge for $550. I gladly drove 5 hrs. one way to get it. I realize this was not an everyday bargain but $650 for a 20 yr. old saw is high IMO.

It sounds like a right tilt saw to me. Are you OK with that? Are you able and willing to replace the belts and deal with other issues such as arbor bearings or motor failure? Do you have 240v service or will that increase the cost? I’d be in the $4-450 range, maybe $500 if it’s really clean and quiet.

I’ve learned to decide what I want, how much I’m willing to pay and then be patient. It has helped temper my inclination to be a grouchy old phart.
