Just got a steal of a deal on a arb 50qt!!

So just a little inside secret for my EP buddies. Keep and eye out on Amazon for the arb fridges. when looking at the fridge looks for any used fridges. Its a little link below the normal price. My buddy got one a few years back for $650. so I kept checking randomly. I wanted the waeco cfx-50 but unfortunately its not sold in the USA and the cfx-65 is not the same thing. They put all the cooling coils on one side so you can use it as a freezer/fridge by letting some of the freezer temps flow over to the fridge side. I just prefer the coils evenly spread out for accurate temps. plus it says the cfx-65 is not nearly efficient in amp as the cfx-50 for some reason. cf-50 is a little outdated compared to arb or cfx models.


Anyways last night I check and ....boom $660 shipped prime. Its brand new unit from amazon but the packing might be damaged. I have purchased lots Of items where it says damaged box but when it arrives it looks perfect. I will be doing some good side by side testing with my Edgestar when it arrives.

I got my Edgestar for $380 shipped back in 2011 and its been an awesome fridge but I just wanted something a little bigger and little more efficient since I leave my fridge on 24/7.

I have the Edgestar for sale in the classifieds, but If I cant get $400 Ill prob just keep it and use it for a freezer when traveling or camping. It will be off otherwise.

I've seen the 37qt drop under 400 on very rare occasions.

I actually saw that last night and was thinking of getting it to replace my EdgeStar... thought about it today, and when I logged in just now to buy it, it was gone.

Well played sir.

Yep, amazon. I scored mine for around half retail. A friend of mine got one for about 550. Both 37qt.

So the fridge arrived today. box was pretty beat up and the fridge showed signed of being used and maybe repaired. The plastic grate was put on a little wrong smashing some plastic but 5min I had it fixed up. on 120v its working as should. 61f to 15f while I ate dinner. Tomorrow ill have to lug my edgestar into the house and do some side by side shots for comparison and ill use the kill-a-watt meter to see how much power they are drawing.

Wait...you got your edgestar for $380 and want to sell it for $400?
Or is there a typo somewhere in there?
