GRACO HV2900 HVLP Refubished $35 @ Ebay Daily Special - Shipped today only

[fgarvin]

I purchased one of these refurbed from Gleem last year, pretty good unit. I only use it to spray Shellac or EM6000, and does a pretty good job. I paid $49 plus shipping from Gleem and thought that was a deal. I might get another one just for the extra gun.

I was curious about these. Has anyone done biz with the distributor listed, I have read good and bad about them and wanted a 1st hand exerience if I could find one. I'm looking at purchasing a Husky Chainsaw from them and might throw this in to boot if its a true refurb vs a returned item repackaged.

I like the gun and the idea of having a separate unit in the shop to spray other than latex paints, which the current gun has seen so much of... only thing that worries me is how many refurbished models I see for sale, amazon, tyler tools, etc. Fgarvin, how many hours have you logged on your unit?

[fgarvin]

I only have about 20 Hours on mine. I just checked, I purchased it refurb from Gleem back on 3/29/2011.

I wonder if they are all really refurbs. The 2900 was a Lowes model, so I wonder if some of these are just returns from when Lowes stopped carrying Graco the physical stores stopped carrying this model.

That's a good point. Some of these may just be store stock that was pushed back for alternate distribution.

I bought one of these many years ago:

And it has worked really well. I only bought it because I already had a compressor and needed something to spray lots of latex with, I figured it had more umpf to get the job done.

When I checked yesterday, the link had a $50 price, but I just checked again and it says $35. For that price, definitely worth the try. My brother has an HVLP unit, and it's been very helpful!

Ditto ... I've ordered one, hope it works for applying finishes (polyurethane, etc) as well as paint.

Thanks fgarvin

Thanks for the post. I have had good luck with the Rockler Unit that I bought years ago for 99 dollars. This unit looks more versatile and will be a nice replaceent at 35 dollars.

I bought one on Monday and out was on my door step yesterday. The turbine unit was definitely used as it had paint on it but the actual spray gun was sealed on a bag and appeared to be brand new. Going to be using out today or tomorrow to shoot some poly so we will see how it works.

Back up to $60 and only 4 left.

EDIT: Something is goofy. Just 5 minutes later the price is back down to $40 and there are more than ten left. I guess that if the numbers aren't correct to just wait and then, recheck. Sorry for the scare.

They have multiple listings for this with prices all over the place. So it is best to just click "view sellers other listings" and search for 2900 to get the price of the day.

To recap, they ran a promotion for $35 when I first posted. After 24 hours, it shot up to $54.99. Then the next day, back down to $35 for about a day. Now it seems to have settled on $39.99.

Back up to $60 and only 4 left.

Mine arrived today.
It was missing the needle removal tool, which will make it hard to clean.
Also the manual says there is a viscosity cup, which I did not receive.

The seller sent an email stating to call them if unsatisfied. I may try to get the missing parts thru them after the holiday. I want to make sure it works at all first.

That's not good ... hope they sort it out quickly for you.

Mine also arrived today, with all parts present and correct. I powered on the blower unit just to check it worked, maybe tomorrow I'll get ambitious and put some paint or polyurethane through it.
