Bought my RMK from an S&M guy, dpolacik. There was about 1200 km between us and he met me in Fort Nelson...he drove the longer chunk even! Didn't want a deposit...and he even beat me to BP! Kind of funny as I posted some adds with a titles of "what should I buy" - and of course got a "hey that's my sled!".

the rest of snow and mud dudes are anything like that, then it's sure to be easy buying and selling!

Kijiji as we know can be pretty hit and miss. No accountability has that effect I guess.

Ya, I've bought and sold a ton of sh!t over the years...I hate Kijiji bottom feeders. I'd far sooner deal with Snow and Mud, the only problem is that most of the folks on here already have the crap I'm trying to sell.

Phone the dealers, some might still have some left over crossfire limiteds. I think I seen one listed In dons speeds parts website. And if you want a new m8 I believe some dealers have some leftover 2011's as well.
ya that's what im looking for but they want only like 800 bucks less than a brand new 13

Basically if you are looking to pay fair dollar for a good machine it doesn't matter where you buy there are as many good people as there are bad..... buyers & sellers on kijiji can be a pain in the azz, I see sellers asking unrealistic prices and I get people offering me $3000 for my 2007 sled....

Just gotta find the right person with the right sled....

I had a stroke of luck with my '06 Rev last year. Advertised on Kijiji and found out later that the seller was a member of S&M. He was totally upfront and straight up with the sled at the point of purchase and afterwards as well. So far, no problems or hidden surprises. Thanks again Powder Chowder.

Kijiji or any other site is hit or miss. Sold mine recently on Kijiji and got what I really wanted after bartering. Just bought my new one on Kijiji. So far seems to be a good deal but won't know until the dealer is done inspecting and the snow falls. It is always buyer or seller beware. The biggest issue is paypal scammers.

I use kijiji a ton, for the most part has been good experiences however I did get burnt on my first sled... Something that would have been avoided had I had someone give it a once over before I took it out and blew it up. Don't take the sellers word for it. With vehicles I'll bring them to a shop and offer to pay for an inspection, if a seller has nothing to hide they'll sometimes even pay the $100 inspection fee if you buy it. I've actually been screwed pretty bad on a truck by dealer who sold it inspected and ready to go... Thing had broken leaf springs for starters and when I went back there he said they weren't broken when he sold it, and we're talking the next day!
