its not the old model, he hasnt updated his picture yet.. ;0)
tradetiler only stocks the new 2009 alloy model beds now...i might be wrong but even tho the tx700n is supposed to be the higher spec model, due to its longer measuring arm, most tilers prefer the standard tx700 because the measuring arm is more compact and ready to use..its also better in confined spaces!

maybe tradetiler is selling way more tx700's than tx700n's, so he's put a little bit of a promotional push on the N version to help it along....thats the only reason i can think of, but dave will no doubt explain why..

i bought a tx700 off him last week and i can assure you its the new model ;0)

hope this helps

Thanks!, I was looking at buying one myself! I will ask Dave (tradetiler)

TX700 rather than the N version, measuring bar far to long

I have the N and yes, the arm can be a pain, but I do like it, on occasions

I've got the n too and couldn't be happier with it.
