Hi again, y'all. I'm getting close to deciding on a poodle. I went and met a really sweet guy yesterday, and I think I'm going to go for it. The lady that has him is a groomer, and he has a short lamb cut right now. I generally plan to maintain him that way.

So, my question is: What is the price range on a good set of clippers for me to use at home? I want to do my own clipping, and I know that a good pair of clippers is absolutely necessary. I found a new set of Oster's on Ebay, and the listing says they are around $50 retail. Good enough?

I have a Andis Clipper. I paid a hundred for mine at Petco and I really like it. Is the dog you are getting a Mini or Standard? I think that you may want to go with a premium clipper if its a Standard. They are a lot more dog to clip.

The Oster deal on ebay sounds great but I have HEARD they can run hot. I personally don't thinks it's a huge deal if you switch the blade out when it gets warm. Well thats all the info I have on clipper's and post pics if you get him.
