I'll be using them on my dogs and on the dogs I practice on for free til I get my certificate. It should go through heavy and thin hair so I'm thinking I'd better get a 2-speed.
this information might be a bit dated but the Andis AG plus and The Laube Mini Lazor clipper are recommended. What do you guys think of those two? What about Wahl 2-speed clippers?
Also, what do you guys think of ordering used ones over the internet? Is this a bad idea? I feel that it's not always a great idea to take people's words at face value. On ebay, there is some accountability because I can lower their rating if I'm unsatisfied. I'm also considering buying from the classifieds on this site. Maybe I could offer to pay 80% before shipping, and the rest once I've received and tested the shipment? Have any of you had bad experiences ordering things second-hand over the internet? Would I be better off to just spring for brand new clippers from a pet supply house?
Clippers are just one thing: I'm planning on buying everything else second-hand over the internet too. My understanding is that they have so many delicate parts that if they're used, there's a better chance they won't work properly, especially if they've ever been dropped. I also need to buy a dryer and the rest: combs, shampoo, disinfectant, just everything. Money is a big concern so I want to get as much second-hand as possible.
Any tips and advice?
