Yes, there is a higher cost initially to purchasing a new piece of fitness equipment versus buying a used piece of equipment from the classifieds or off Craigslist. But, did you know it may cost you more in the long run to buy used equipment than new?
You can find good, used fitness equipment from a dedicated, specialty retailer like Fitness 4 Home Superstore – as long as that retailer stands behind their equipment, has done any necessary refurbishment prior to putting it up for sale, and also lets you know what the potential pitfalls may be, such as what remaining warranty there may be, what areas may wear quicker than a new piece of equipment, and what out of warranty repairs may cost you in the event of there being issues after purchase. A reputable retailer may also be able to offer options for extended warranties, if applicable. When you purchase off of Craigslist, for example – you get none of that – you may end up with a piece of equipment that was never maintained, has reliability issues, and may even be in need of repair, which will cost you above and beyond what your original purchase cost was. So, any savings you may have found purchasing from a private owner is more than lost in repair costs.
Additionally, if you’re purchasing fitness equipment to get back in shape, train for an event, or save time & money over a gym membership, you owe it to yourself to spend your hard earned money on equipment that is going to give you a return on investment. The more compromises you make in your equipment choice just to save money, means your less likely to find total satisfaction in your purchase, which could result in your equipment going unused – which means you wasted your money on your purchase. Purchasing equipment new from a retailer like Fitness 4 Home Superstore in Arizona means you can work with your salesperson to make sure your purchasing the best equipment that fits your fitness goals, ensuring that within your budget, you’re getting exactly what you want.
And, with new equipment, you not only get to take advantage of the most recent findings in exercise physiology, which translated into today’s new fitness equipment, means you may turn a boring workout into an enjoyable one, keeping you motivated to achieve your fitness goals. Older equipment not only might not get you to where you want to be, in the time you wish, related to your fitness goals – but, newer equipment may have features such as touch screens, Bluetooth connectivity, fitness tracking, or video displays that take a mundane workout, and make it enjoyable.
