DAE think a $60 used chair beats financing a new one for a small practice?
I talked to a dentist named Marcus in Cincinnati last month who runs a two-room practice, and he said his 1998 Belmont chair still works fine after a $60 motor swap. Everyone online says you need new equipment to look legit, but he booked 22 new adult patients that same quarter, so I'm not buying it. I get that financing is easy and shiny stuff feels good, but how many of you actually regret going used instead of new? Curious what broke first for you, since his only real issue was the upholstery.
