Damn, they have the PCCS9R for $100 off what everyone else sells them for! Of course I see this AFTER buying the stuff to just setup a Wildcard.

Nice grab, Tony! Going to display it with the plastic still on it?

Haven't decided yet, but more than likely the plastic will come off

I bit on a PCCS9RW. Upon arrival it was marked remanufactured (90 day warranty). I'm not disappointed with a refurb, mind you, it just wasn't advertised as such.

I suspect that most of the product available through that link is refurb - hence the password being "whelenre".

I am however disappointed that it didn't come with a label sheet for the pushbuttons and I'm trying to contact them to see if they can remedy that particular shortcoming. Failing that - anyone know where to get just the labels?

I use the site on which this was purchased, it is all retired and remanufactured items. There are no "new" items for sale there at all.

There are two categories of items listed:  

Remanufactured Products

All items have been tested, and include all standard installation hardware and manuals (may contain minor blemishes). 

All photos are for reference only. Some details including color and options may vary.

For information on any of these products, please call us

Retired Products

All items have been tested, and include all standard installation hardware and manuals.

JohnMarcson - thanks for the reply.

I guess I just missed it in the excitement of getting the switch I needed for a darn good price. I stand corrected.

However, I still have 2 questions: Should this have come with new labels since it was reman? And where can I get them? see below

Thanks.

Quick update: I just got a reply and they (advanced emergency products) are sending a label sheet out to me right away.

Great prices, and good service thus far I must say.

 I'd call or email them.  In the last incarnation of that site I got a remanufacturered siren that was defective.  They offered me a refund or a different refurbed one, my choice.  I'd reach out to them politely, it's possible they have some or will simply get them for you.   Doesn't hurt to ask.  The PCS I ordered from them had the labels inside the printed manual "packet". 

edit- They replied and are sending you one.  I had a feeling they'd help you out.

JohnMarcson - again, thanks for the reply.

I did just that - it seems good service is a common theme for them. I pulled everything out of the box and layed it all out on the counter and found no labels. They are sending me a sheet right away. Again, I am very happy with their service.

As far as not noticing the categories, I have done one "worse".   That site is like a candy store, I got distracted, didn't fully read.... and ended up with a 36v LED for like $8 .  I sold it on ebay for $20, marked clearly.  The guy buys it and wants to return it, because he didn't notice it was 36v. lol..

The bar I got was very much new. It came in the sealed box from Whelen and did not have the remanufactured tag other items I've purchased have had. The company sold it to me as new, never used and I believe them.

This reply is a little misleading.... I bought one of these bars as well.  The items sold on the site referenced may be new in the sense that they were never mounted, but they are all either retired, remanufactured, overstocks etc.  The people running the site do sell "new" Whelen products in another section, but the section these are purchased from does not contain any "new" order products.  They may be NOS, NIB etc, but not a traditional "new" purchase.
