It is used but looks to be in great shape.
I have no experience with bandsaws but I already feel the need for one.
The ad says it has new tires and a mobile base.
Has anybody any experience with this model?
Thank you.

That's pretty much the same one I recently fished out of a dumpster, which means it's probably about 20 years old.
I'd talk 'em down a bit.

Darius, is there a fence someplace else? $230, plus the cost of an aftermarket fence, or the time spent making a shopbuilt version will change the actual price a bit.
I paid more than that for a used open frame US made Delta several years back, without a fence, and I've never regretted it. I'd think you may have some room on the price, but it sounds to me like a fair starting point.
Once you get a bandsaw, you'll be suprised how often you use it!
