    Default A warning to Triton buyers

    I've recently been burned by a seller of secondhand Triton goods operating not far from Balwyn North. I ordered a Triton saw blade, advertised as brand new, 60 tooth triple cut. It was $45 (plus postage)
    I received a 40 tooth used blade with damaged teeth, alternating cut. Upon pointing this out, the seller offered me a $20 refund.
    At best this seller doesn't know his stuff, at worst he is capable of acting without good business ethics.
    Don't get caught!

    What medium is he working through, Ebay, Gumtree or some where else?
    Is that Balwyn North Vic or another state?
    Thanks for the heads up.

    I'm an extensive Gumtree user and that's the first time I've been let down by a seller.

    Know the feeling

    I just bought a gifkins dovetail jig A10 from a guy in Robertson "complete with cutters manuals etc" only problem was the cutters were too small
    I've had to buy a new set of cutters for $120 to make it happen, I asked for $80 back, he offered $40 and then reneged altogether

    On a brighter note you've reminded me that I saw this AutoElec | Quality 4WD Parts, Caravan Accessories and Auto Electrical Parts at AutoElec the other day, the blades aren't 235mm but they also have a range of Triton router bits as well on special

    I've bought batterys from them before, they were straight up with delivery and quality

    cheers
