Buying used snap-on box Vrs new bigger china box

1300 is a great deal for that box combo, and you could probably always sell it for $500 when you want to upgrade later on down the line, assuming it stays together.

for comparisons sake, i recently just bought a used MAC tech1000 top and bottom box, basically the same as the one you are looking at from chi-chai-wong and i paid $2500 for a used box that is in very good condition.
