I _personally_ would be wary of secondhand ones. The nature of the ac 
system is such that the refrigerant is hydroscopic and will absorb 
water. If key parts such as the compressor have been left open to the 
atmosphere for any length of time, you could be looking at corroded 
internals. This is not "based on something I've read" but from the 
horse's mouth so-to-speak, Darren Bowker. He'll be buying one from DMCH 
at some point for his 30. They really are the cheapest
