SWG and Ebay??

by the way, was just checking their track record..for the # of transactions they have, good record..what i would do though..and while it may seem anal..is specifically check with the seller to make sure it includes the cell, power supply and anything else the kit should continue..just cause it has the right picture doesn't mean that it includes everything..they can claim to ebay if they did something like that that you didn't ask.sure, they didn't say, but...ebay is always on the side of the seller cause they're paying for the site, first.

It really depends on who the dealer is. For the most part, an E-bay transaction is usually not a transaction that would have a factory warranty. Unless the seller is an Authorized AutoPilot dealer, we would not cover the Pool Pilot under warranty.

The other considerations is the installation. I've had some authorized warranty stations refuse to service a unit that was purchased on-line.

Again, IMO, it depends on if the seller is an Authorized AutoPilot dealer.

Very good avice. I've sold a lot, and bought my share, and if it isn't listed assume it's not included. Don't be shy about using the "Ask seller a question" link to find out EXACTLY what is included, if there is warranty coverage, are they an authorized dealer and what the shipping cost will be. It's a trend on Ebay to understate the selling price and jack up the shipping to minimize selling fees, though the SWG's don't seem to bad for that. One good thing about Ebay is that there will be another for sale if you don't get reasonable information and have to let that one go.

There are some authorized sellers with factory warranties in place, some are grey market at a really good price. Depends on your risk tolerance level for getting a much lower price.
