That's certainly true enough, I've won a nice TIG welder through Apex, as well as a variety of tooling (including most of the slitting saws I broke...). The main thing to watch on other auction sites is the buyer's premium & VAT on top, between them that's often an extra 30% on the hammer price. Peaker Pattinson often have some good stuff too, I just recently scored a digital storage oscilloscope, HP logic analyser, a 5A power supply & a random selection of "things" (junk, as the ex missus would have called it), all for less than £250 including vat & premiums.
