Re: PERMANENT THREAD: Ebay& other internet FINDS of interest- read all the OP please
Not really. They show up for $200 and under sometimes. I will personally sell you a power-ten brand (subsidiary of sorensen/xantrex) 0-20V 0-50A unit for $200.
That's not exactly right, you must be talking about other units, not this specific model. If anyone ever sees a guaranteed working Xantrex XFR-20-60 on ebay with all its knobs which isn't beat to hell for only $200 dollars with under $50 shipping, please contact me, I will pay a 10% finders fee.
The cheapest I have seen a XFR-20-60 listed on ebay was $350 plus $125 shipping to me in Alaska which was not guaranteed working, this one is. The reason I brought this to the forum is the guarantee of being a working unit with free shipping and
ability to make an offer, I bet he might sell it for 350.00, or less, which when combined with free shipping is a good deal. They are very heavy and can cost quite a bit to ship.
I saw the one you had listed on ebay, but everytime I looked at it I just thought the unit was too old. Also, the photo you had up was poor due to a bad setting and lighting which contributed to that impression. I looked at that listing several times over a period of months and decided not to buy each time. However, I found two units which appear that they might be newer models made by that company for $150 on ebay, that's only $75 dollars each. Although not guaranteed working, a risk:
D130426 Lot (2) Power Ten 3304D-2050 0-20V 0-50A Power Supply - Nothing wrong with that model, I am sure it will do the same job the higher end Xantrex can do, just they sell for less. You can find lower current units with less voltage range for a good price, the 0-20 V units at 50 amps or higher are more expensive, no matter who makes them.
Here's an older model up for auction, right now low, but again, not working:

Right now the best deal I have found for a newer 0-20 VDC 50A power supply is this one for $200, maybe that is what you are referring to, but it still isn't the Xantrex 60 amp model:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/SORENSEN-AM...BLE-DC-POWER-SUPPLY-0-20V-0-50A-/291977042374 - Shipping to me in Alaska for this unit is close to $120 dollars, so this price beats my earlier post by quite a bit, not the same unit, close though and all together for me $320.00.
Again, here is the model I posted about earlier, I have already contacted him and asked for the bottom dollar price, but some sellers don't like that, they want us to make offers:
Xantrex XFR 20-60 Programmable DC Power Supply 0-20V 0-60A, XFR20-60 White Face | eBay
These are the only Xantrex XFR 20-60 units on ebay I found today:
I have kept an auto-notify for the XFR 20-60 on my ebay account for four years now, so I know what their prices are when working.
