    I have a Craftsman 60 gal. upright that went 7 years with just oil changes and belt adj.

    Last summer I had to replace the head and valve body after it cracked.
    I think I paid about $600 - $700 for it brand new on sale.

    I use the shit out of it. 8 years now.
    The Sears in Redding also has Ingersols in stock on occasion for not much more.

    I would recommend a new one if you plan on making it a fixture in your garage, used ones are generally used up...

    Mine is losing the lower end now I think, it gets HOT and never used to.

    But still, 8 years is a good run IMO for that price.

    I could replace the entire compressor unit for around $400 I think?
