Dewalt Scroll Saw-needs work - $50
Dewalt 20" Scroll Saw with stand. Original price $450.
Currently non-functioning but a Dewalt authorized mechanic will fix for minimal cost (the most they could charge is $200 but the issue is likely very simple).

I'll have to get it fixed but the closest authorized DeWalt mechanic is only 3.5 miles away or 12 mins so it's not a problem. The seller doesn't mention whether it's the Type 1 Canadian model or Type 2 Taiwanese model. Emailed the seller yesterday asking which type it is and haven't gotten a response yet.
Don't know how much it would cost to repair it but the Guaranteed Repair Cost is $259.99 which includes:
Complete teardown inspection
Thorough cleaning & lubrication
Replacement of worn & damaged parts
Full performance & safety test
So worst case scenario, I spend an extra $260 to fix it.
Is it worth it or should I try and look for a working model?
I know the type 1 Canadian version is better, but does that mean I should avoid it if it's a type 2 Taiwanese version?
