Re: Need Help - Looking for Used HP Bed

if i had 13k to spend...and had enough a/c, room size and power...i'd find a newer magic 636 or mastersun...i'd look into the magic 4....some prefer the matrix...

i'd look for a HP bed that catered to all skin types...non reddening effect...traditional HP...less reddening. easiest to sell to clients. full or nearly full session day one.

sunboard xtt looks awesome, but has reddening effect, thus harder sell.

2007 or newer for around 13K in good-excellent condition and reconditioned, new lamps etc is on the low side for most units. New HP runs 30-40k and newer used, of the best units, will run 50-75% off retail depending on HOW new, which unit (supply/demand) what sort of "good-excellent condition" and what sort of condition it is coming in in terms of if it has been extracted or you have to get it, if it has been cleaned/detailed/tested, if new lamps are included (that is $2-3k in cost), what shape the acrylic is in ($1000-1500), etc. HP with mattress are less than 360HP (less to buy initially, less to relamp, no acrylic to replace, less demand for resale).

That said - there is a 'best bed' for any budget and a budget for any "best bed". And many units pre-2007 that would be great choices. And some I wouldn't consider no matter the price or the year!
