Thrustmaster TX Racing Wheel (Used)

Adept
Hi everyone, I am looking at the captioned racing wheel in the used market, and the seller has offered it at 30K. He claims that it has been used only for 3 months, but it is 1.5 years old and out of warranty.

Any advice on whether it is a better option at that price point in comparison with a new G29?

g29 new is for the same, right?
 
^^ what enthusiast29 said, while the thrustmaster is better, used and without warranty for 29k is not a good deal, for someone who's new to sim racing, both will feel good, go with the G29 imo

Thanks guys. Is there merit in getting a used one from here or OLX - if it comes at around 18K?

As of now, I personally feel more comfortable with the idea of getting it new due to the warranty unless there was some warranty left on a used G29, or in case I can get it for a larger discount but I am a little bit concerned because as a newbie, I would not really know if there are any issues with the used wheel, even if I test it out for an hour or so before buying.
