I made the big mistake of buying a used portable space heater for sale on ebay.
- This was something I should have never done.
Because buying portable HVAC equipment used is going to mean that its lifespan is going to be who knows how much shorter than if you bought it brand new. In this case, the portable space heater that was for sale on ebay that I bought fully stopped working within a week of me having it! I was pretty mad to be honest. So I filed a dispute and demanded a full refund including the shipping money to ship this heap of junk back to the seller who sold it to me. I talked to a few other people who had bought portable space heaters and portable air conditioning systems used on ebay and other places on the internet and they all had similar stories as mine. This just proves that the only way to go is going to be to buy a portable space heater or a portable air conditioning system brand new. You can buy it from ebay if it is new or anywhere else on the internet. Just be sure that the portable space heater or portable air conditioning system that you are buying which is for sale is brand new and still sealed in the package. Otherwise there is a good chance it will be broken and not work shortly after you actually buy it! I learned a good lesson by all of this and will never do something like this ever again in my life.
