Buying a Bowflex Extreme from Classified Ads

The bowflex extreme from Nautilus is one of their top of the line home gyms. The Extreme allows you to perform over 65 different resistance training exercises, and comes with a default 210lbs of resistance via the Bowflex power rods. Although this is a great home gym, its price is reflective of its name, “Extreme”!

You can often find a used bowflex Xtreme offered through local classified ads. Here are some tips to make sure you get a fully functional Bowflex Xtreme from a classified ad:
Look for Specific Details of the Bowflex in the Ad

When you’re looking at the Bowflex home gym description in the classified ad, you want to get as much detail as possible. Sometimes you’ll find an ad that only lists what is for sale, the price, and the phone number, without any details at all. If this is the case, contact the seller and ask for further details on the Bowflex Xtreme.

Some questions you want to ask about the pre-own bowflex are:

* How long was the bowflex used for?
* What is the condition of the bowflex?
* Was the bowflex used on a regular basis?

Inspect and Use the Bowflex

The next step will be to actually drive over to the sellers’ house and inspect the bowflex yourself to make sure that what they claimed while talking to you on the phone is true. Try out a variety of exercises, and make sure that all components are there.

Keep in mind that often times with classified ads it’s first come, first serve, so if you see a deal on a second hand bowflex xtreme, inquire about it right away or else another person will!
