Had a guy contact me today and tell me about a roto baler. Story I got was:
Dad bought it a long time ago, and used it small scale around the property for a few horses each year. In 1995 he put it away for the year and put "several new belts, and a few misc parts on it". He had a heart attack during the winter, and never went back to farming. Passed away this spring, and the son is getting rid of stuff. Asked me what I thought it weight, told him my guess, and that I figured it would be worth $100-150 at the scrap yard, he instantly blurted out $100 and it's yours..... It is SUPPOSED to be in "very" good condition. Orange top machine I think (white ones are better right??) He said it has been in a completely inclosed barn since 1995, and hasn't moved. Pretty sure I could just put my own tires on it and pull it home nice and easy.
Whats it worth if I were to clean it up and sell it?
