Are you on Facebook? There's a Facebook "marketplace" where people buy and sell things. There's plenty of machines for sale in a 100 mile radius of my house. I'd bet there's probably plenty near you also. You can search at different distances.

Unless your finances are really tight and you don't have good insurance coverage, you should get an up-to-date machine.

Could you share with us what your current machine is as well as the total therapy environment. Your location would help, too - as well as your settings.

Craigs list is a good place and you can usually pick up units for a lot less than the asking price. They also come fairly often on local on line auctions. Got the womans S9 on one for $26!
