I have had those pumps on service trucks that sat idle for 2 years (spare service truck for technician when their truck is in the shop) and that pump will be 3 years out of warranty. I still use them and the work without a problem. Old stock when it comes to motors, keep in a dry place above 45° and below 90° and you will have no problem. If you put it in the attic and the roof leaks on the box and then it freezes, then it gets to 120° next summer, then gets wet again the following winter. It will probably still work but there is a chance for failure under those conditions.
I would buy it.Edward Young Retired
After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

You want to sit on one for who knows how long, to save $20? For starters there are more efficient ones on the market. And by the time you need it there will probably be a better one.

Search around on the internet for the best price and see if you are getting a good deal. The price will certainly increase and you may not need anything better than that. The cost to repair a pump is almost the price of a new pump.0
