Cost of the machine
When planning to buy a used Heidelberg for sale, always make sure you are not paying too high a price. The second hand machines are always cheaper than first hand ones.

Nobody knows what kind of repairs the machine might have undergone during its first usage and it is difficult to make out whether the parts which were repaired and replaced are of good quality.
