    Hello, I'm new to the forum and looking for some advice. I've been looking for refurbed toughbook for some time now. I'm pretty close to buying this toughbook http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLACK-COBRA...542460?hash=item58bf3c9c3c:g:k04AAOSwBLlVdhCQ
    It's seems to be a good deal and within my budget, what do you guys think?but I'm alittle hesitant. Has anybody bought a TB from techtough.com? I asked a few questions and they got to me pretty quick. I can't find anything about them on the web. Any feed back would be appreciated. thanks.

    Welcome to the Panasonic Tough book forum

    He is a good guy to deal with and I have bought from him before. He is also a member of this forum. I know others have bought from him too.

    My man may be able to do a better deal. I just contacted him.
    Wait for him to join in.
    I know he has 2 or 3 faster models for sale. At least one with zero hours.

    1. Alex at techtuff is one of my favorite people. I totally re-commend him. He has NEVER done me wrong. Just saying.
    2. Thank you Shawn for the referral??
    so.....if OP is in Canada deal with Alex. Otherwise deal with me. :D
    My offer? good for 72 hours is CF-31 MK2 with 20 hours on clock, price is between OP and myself.

    PM sent. One mistake. The 31JE is un-touched as I received it and still at 0 hours. I had it confused with a MK3 0 hour that is my keeper.
