last but not least, should i take the chances on picking up an used one?

 

I made out good with one. But it will serve you well if you familiarize yourself with all the components of the kit so you can make sure its complete before you get it. Sometimes you get lucky, but seems there is always something missing. Some guys really get raped, I think for the most part people are good on disclosing info on s2ki though. Just ask allot of questions.

 

if you are new to FI and want to save yourself headaches, save up and get a complete kit, you may think you can get out of it for cheap, but you have to know what you are really looking for and there is going to be a ton of stuff you are going to need

 

thanks once again
