GeneAmp 9700 - FAQ
Anything under 4,000 hours with a continuous service log is generally clean. 4,000–6,000 hours is fine if major service is current. Over 6,000 without recent preventive maintenance is high risk - factor in $2,000–$5,000 for service at purchase.
New GeneAmp 9700 list pricing runs 2–3x the used market ($3,000–$8,000). Depreciation is steepest in years 1–3. Buying at 2–4 years used captures most of the depreciation discount while getting a unit with minimal hours.
