madman_us Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 alright guys, i just wanted to share my experience and the pictures with you. here a slideshow:http://smg.photobucket.com/user/MadManDeluxe/slideshow/CET4-20W here a copy out of the other CPO Outlet post:received the air compressor yesterday (06/07/15). i am so disappointed. its a factory reconditioned.item didnt came in the original Bosch box. just a sturdy cardboard box. i opened the box and i just smelled oil.i took it out and i inspected it. oil was almost everywhere at the air compressor,manufacturer patched up the damaged air compressor cage with paint ,plastic housing/ cover from the motor scratched up.1 rubber foot was broken off,rust and oil at the bottom of the air tanks,paint job comes off the air tanks, kinda looks like rust bubbles or so,air filter dirty, i have no clue who reconditioned that item but my thoughts it just got the Recon sticker and they threw it back in the box.no cleaning - nothing.still paid $300 for that tool - i definitely gonna send it back. i hope they take care of the return shipping costs for a almost 100lbs item. CPO is dead for me....how can you sell items like that, in that condition and for that kinda price. that tool is maybe $100 worth or less. that something what you find at a garage sale or something.i didnt take any pictures....because i threw it back in the box withing 15mins of inspection. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR99 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Wow, that is awful!! Did you hear back from CPO at all yet about getting your money back yet? I will say Bosch deserves a little bit of crap too though they should have scrapped that compressor. That thing was used and abused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman_us Posted July 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 yeah that air compressor has seen better times. i wanna know how the Recon Department works or if anybody even signed for that item that its OK for re-saleno i still have to contact them. but first i wanna post something on facebook like you said. all those pictures are going online Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comp56 Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 that is just 1 reason why I won't bother with them or a company like them......being in that they are a Reconditioned selling depot they actually have a licence to steal......some kid in the back warehouse gets a drill in......throws a battery in it pulls the trigger if it works bingo goes on the web site at 10% off retail.....

jrsalas Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 That's lame. So unprofessional on their part,surprised a company like this is still in business. Hope you get your full refund.

BK13 Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 My one and only experience with CPO went smoothly, but I bought a new tool (M12 Fuel impact wrench). A co-worker placed an order that I got in on, and my grinder box had a little oil on it but the grinder was fine (and a Fein, LOL). I'll be keeping an eye open from now on...

madman_us Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 i think it would turn out different if this air compressor would be NEW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman_us Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 CPO Outlet replied on facebook - lets see how they wanna solve that problem....i want a brand new one lol.prolly not gonna work out because its a discontinued item but maybe they gonna find one in a warehouse just waiting for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruton Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Hopefully they take care of it for you because what they sent you was so subpar for a recon item it's not funny. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman_us Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 i wouldn't call that a recon item....its a returned item and they left it in the box.yeah lets see what they gonna do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman_us Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 She sounds like a good wife surprising you with tools keep her, at least she tried don't be to hard on her.
