Jeroen,

Of course all sellers make mistakes, but it is not true that second 
hand equipment comes without warranty. At least my company gives a 
full six month (and sometimes 12 months) warranty on second hand 
equipment, parts and labour. We warrant the item to pass the 
performance verification, and to comply with the original specs, and 
to remain in specs for the warranty period.

A bent handle may happen; if the transit damage can't be demonstrated 
we would have sent a new handle for free - less expensive than 
upsetting a customer :-) but of course this depends on company policies.
