What year bandsaw?

[daletour91]

Hi all.I found a jet JBS-14cs bandsaw,it is silver and is on a jet roller cab.
The guy is asking $150 for it and in the pics it looks like it is in great condition.He does not know how old it is so does anyone hear have any idea?


Thanks Mike

I don't know how old that saw is but if its in good shape I'd snap it up before someone else beats you to it. As long as the tires, wheels, belts and the motor are in good shape that's a pretty good price. It's even a better deal if it already comes with a riser block installed.

agreed! Wonder what the smiley icon is for drooling over a deal, or one for a gloat before the buy

If it's in good shape, move fast. I found a similar deal yesterday, contacted the seller right away, and will pick it up today. Since I committed early (thanks to some helpful advice from others on this forum), the seller's been overwhelmed with phone calls and e-mails.

Good deals like this do not last long.
