Yes, you read that correctly, I received a new $5,000 machine for $115.00.

FIRST A MAJOR DISCLAIMER – I HAVE NO CONNECTION WHATSOEVER WITH THIS COMPANY.
In March 2012, I purchased the BiPAP machine off craigslist. It had zero hours. About a month ago, when I had 511.7 Therapy Hours, I began to have problems with the BiPAP. The alarm would sound and the machine would shut down and display the error message: Device Inoperative. I would unplug it and plug it back and it would work. It began to happen too often, so I searched the internet to try and locate a company to service it.
I ran across the website for Advans. Below I have pasted the text from their website. The ad had the following statement:
There is a possibility of a full replacement of your current equipment if the machine is less than two years old.
Well, I was very dubious about a replacement, as a matter of fact, I even felt dubious about a repair for $100, but since I could not locate another repair site, I sent them the machine. A few days later, they notified me that they could NOT repair the BiPAP.
About TWO WEEKS later I received the BRAND NEW MACHINE – NO ADDITIONAL COST -- $115.00!
Again, I have no affiliation with them, but if you have a machine that needs repair, they OBVIOUSLY have my strongest recommendation!!!
