hi guys i was hoping someone could help me out with some advice.First let me say i currently have an old pellet pro by harman. it blew up the circuit due to a wiring issue i cant find. So after talking to a local deal i realized that it wasnt worth fixing. So my question is im looking at the p61 model for alittle over 4 grand, more than i want to pay, but i dont want to buy junk either. So i located a used one that i was told was about 10 years old for 1750. i was told it had the blower motors replaced plus an updated circut board. i was wondering if this was a fair price and is there a big difference between the new one and the old one. is a used one something i should avoid?
Thanks
 
Maybe the local dealer wanted to sell you a stove, hence the advice. Might want to find a local independent maintenance tech and have them take a look. Might end up being very cost effective to fix what you have.
 
If you look hard enough, you can pick up a new P61A for about $3300-3400.00 depending on how bad the dealer wants to move them.....

Used models less than 7-8 years old tend to fetch about $2000-2300.00 in exquisite condition.
