Maybe you should list what you think it's worth and let people negotiate with you from there.

I would like to say that I have purchased off Letsride last year when he was a newbie on this forum

I found him to be honest & reliable, I have no hesitation in recommending Mark to any prospective buyer

Cheers

Your price is not way out of line, however since your machine has been used a year, here's a reference. Last year when I bought my ResMed S9 Adapt ASV, identical to yours, from a forum member it cost $1100 which included shipping, insurance, a Climateline hose and a verbal warranty of sorts (indeed a very trusted member). Here's the kicker: It only had TEN hours on the blower - essentially brand new. You might want to put an OBO after your price listed above. That being said, sometimes you can get lucky because there's always a few potential ASV buyers who are usually ready to make the jump when they see their AHI and PB numbers heading 'south'.

You got what I call a killer deal...sometimes there are deals and then there are killer deals.
$1000 for this model with 3,000 hours is a fair deal..not a killer deal though...
If I had the money back when your machine was offered...I would have snatched that baby up in a heart beat.

We don't see S9 Adapts offered here very often at all...at any price. Special market and they are going to hold their value more than the other models.

[Sir NoddinOff]

BTW Pugsy... have you taken up your Adapt S9 ASV experiment again.

BTW Pugsy... have you taken up your Adapt S9 ASV experiment again.

Yes, sir, sure have.
You know I was sick when I got it and didn't feel like messing with it until probably the middle of Jan...so I think Jan 14 was my first night....and you gotta love it...first night AHI 0.0 with a big smiley face in SleepyHead on the unstable version which I have been playing with.
I had no idea what pressures to use so I just set it for it's defaults and ran with it. Got really lucky.
I did finally change EPAP from 5 to 6 just because of air hunger issues..remember I was used to 10 EPAP with my Bipap.
I could probably do 5 now comfortable...I used 5 for 3 nights I think. Still got the first night 0.0 AHI with 5 EPAP

I can't say that I really notice anything different in how I feel during the day.
Adjustment to it was a piece of cake. I sleep about the same as I slept before...any sleep issues I might have are related to other problems.
I can see why Dr Krakow wants to put people who have trouble with cpap or bilevel on it...OMG it is so smooth and easy to breath with. I can use a much lower EPAP now and still keep the obstructives well prevented...and that means it feels like pretty much I am not even using a machine.

My highest pressure was close to 21...seems to go up and down a lot with some drastic changes ...like 6cm to 20cm in 10 seconds but I sleep right through each and every one of them.

Now I have 3 machines...so one needs to find a new home. More later on that when I decide which one and what to do.

So while I can't say I have experienced any miracles with the Adapt...the adjustment took all of one night and I guess I am one of those lucky ones. It's not like I was having issues anyway...I don't always feel so great during the day or sleep the best but that's totally because of issues not related to sleep apnea so I really didn't expect those issues to become non issues.

[Sir NoddinOff]

That's good news Pugsy... you adapted a LOT faster than I did but then you've had all those years of BiLevel experience like STLMark, who was another overnight convert. Now that you're getting used to your S9 Adapt, you'll probably be looking for a backup ASV machine very soon. Hmmmm, I heard there's one for sale somewhere around here Like right on this thread! Just as a side note: I recently got my ASV backup but I decided to get a PR S1 BiPAP autoSV advanced model instead... just to mix things up a bit. They sure are different beasts as John Fisher has pointed out.

[Pugsy]

I can't do a backup Adapt anywhere in the future...no money...even if another killer deal came up.
Right now if I found one for $200 I would have to pass.
Propane and winter and electricity and vehicle insurance (due next month) costs have me counting pennies right now.
This winter has been much more severe than normal so my utility costs have skyrocketed.
And not much relief showing anywhere in the near future.
Plus my husband took time off from work (no pay) to stay with me when I was so sick.
And last week he came down with what appeared to be a similar bug and was off work for 10 days..just went back yesterday.
He doesn't get sick pay.


But one day...yeah, if the price is good...I will likely try to pick up a backup..or in the spirit of my experimenting...get a model 960 PR S1.

I have to agree with Pugsy about loving these S9 Adapts. I started last Dec.12th using mine and it is the smoothest breathing, not like my S9 VPAP Auto. I also had no trouble adapting to this machine, cause I was use to pressure when using the VPAP Auto. I started by using the defaut settings and the only thing I've changed was the EPAP to 5.6. My sleep Doc will probably have a cow when I tell him that I changed from VPAP to ASV, but when I changed from the AutoSet to VPAP he did and I looked at him and told him it's not rocket science and that calmed him down. I eventually had a sleep study for bipap.

letsride what do you get with the ASV? Do you get the carry bag and the humidifier?

Sir Noddinhoff, Which ASV do you feel better with the next day?
Is it the PR or the S9?

Still sorting out that issue since I've only been using the PR for a few weeks. They are very different in delivering pressure, however early results indicate the impact on my sleep is about the same. It's early days so I'll update everybody when I get it all sorted out.

I'm shocked at these prices, but you guys say they are amazing. I am new to vpap and just got the 36057 S9 vpap with climate line for $56 copay. Eligible for a new machine every 6 months. I don't think I could ever spend that much.
