  8. Hi Jim. I have a 30” Excalibur that I purchased in 09. Fabulous machine with no vibration. Place a nickel on table standing, turn machine on and gradually increase the speed. Nickel stays. That’s how smooth of a machine this is. Canadian made. I’ve yet to have an issue and I use it almost daily. $400.00 seems a lot but if it’s an Excalibur made in Canada and it’s in excellent condition showing little wear than it’s definitely worth the price. If it’s off shore in excellent condition showing little wear I would then offer less. It all depends on the age of the machine, made domestic or off shore, condition, your needs and your budget in mind. These are my thoughts and opinions. Good luck with your decision.
