What is an average price for a NH 488 haybine. I know that price varies with condition and location but there is one at an auction next week and I would like a ballpark figure so I can determine if it is in my league or not (I'm in SE Pennsylvania). Also, what should I check when inspecting one. Any other opinions on the quality of these would be appreciated. Thanks.

Prices can vary a lot on a NH 488 as they started making them in 1977 and they are still being made as a current model. You could be buying a nearly new machine or one that is over 20 years old. Generally, you're looking at $1500 to $2000 to get anything decent. I've seen a lot of machines go for less, but these are primarily rough shape parts machines. Parts are plenty expensive unless you can find a junk machine to salvage parts from.

I just bought my 477 haybine at an auction in southern PA for $1700. It needed a few new parts but all-in-all, it's in pretty decent shape.

I'm not far from you geographically (west central New Jersey). The last one I saw at auction was in decent condition as far as sheet metal and rollers, but needed a new knife, and it went for $1800. Prices have really dropped on the sickle machines in this area, as everyone is hot for the NH Discbines and competitive machines. Saw an average condition NI 5209 (white paint) go for $6000 last year.
