04 Mar 10 Where Can I Get The Best Price On An Elliptical?
When it comes to purchasing an elliptical trainer you have four choices in where to buy:1. Mass Merchant2. Fitness Specialty Store3. On-line Distributor4. Used from a private individualI would discourage you from option 4 since quite frankly, it’s very risky to purchase a used elliptical trainer.
