Hi guys,
I am currently looking at buying an antique Ensilage/Forage Cutter built by Case. I am trying to figure out what it is worth.
I did have a much older Papec built ensilage cutter about 4 years ago that we pulled out of the woods before I got into the big tractors, and I know we couldn't even manage to give it away so that went to scrap sadly. Was in a bit worse condition but not by much. Pictures of that are included at the bottom.
The guy is asking $200 for it which seems like an okay price but given my experience where I couldn't even give one away it seems high. It's about 2 hours away just north of Albany, NY.
What would be a fair price to offer him for it? He thought he could get $300 for scrap but I doubt he could get $100, since I know they weight a decent amount, but not much more than a ton I don't think.
Also does anyone have any other information on these ensilage cutters such as year and what exactly to use them for? I don't know too much about them, but would like to try and save this one and eventually use it at shows for demonstrations now that I actually have tractors to use with it.
The first 3 pictures are the Case ensilage cutter that I am looking at buying, the last 5 are the one I had 4 years ago.

In this area of Wisconsin, most crops are raised to support livestock production or dairy herds in various forms. Corn products were harvested for grain, and for ensilage (we always just called it 'silage'). Silo Filling Time On dairy farms back in the 30's and into the first half of the 40's, making of corn silage was done with horses pulling a corn binder producing tied bundles of fresh, sweet-smelling corn plants, nice green leaves with ear; the
