Looks to be in good shape from photo in ad - not sure how good the price is.

That is the first Ridgid bandsaw. 3/4 HP, the price is $325.00. That is what they sold for new in 2003, w/o the 6 in riser. Many people complained about vibration.
The new Grizzly 0555 is a much better deal.No good deed goes unpunished -
That is no bargain. Maybe worth $150 tops._________________________

I bought my Harbor Freight band saw because of the complaints about the BS1400's vibration problems... And even at that, he is asking close to what a new one w/o the riser costs... No bargain at all...Please like and subscribe to my YouTube channel. Please check out and subscribe to my Workshop Blog.Comment

The vibration issue is easily overcome mostly with a link belt but his price is out of line. I'd go $200 but if you're going to spend $550 I'd go with Dave's advice. I own the BS1401 only because I got a rebuild from Cummins Tool Sales for $150. Replaced the belt, tires and blocks and balanced the wheels. Very smooth now but if I was spending $550...Blessings,
