Good the 200 a much improved machine. The baron can’t be pushed beyond the bale length spec, it will break bales and bundles. When dealing with bundles end users prefer the twine packages due to no strap disposal issues but if they are broken open for sale at a feed store they like the more robust straps.
You can get around some of the straps breaking bales issues by running heavier twine on the baler too. They keep tweaking the dies that make the straps convex / rounded but some folks still have trouble. Owen at the bandit place seems to have improved his customer support and attitude a bit too over the years. Baron/marcrest always has had top notch support.
First gen barons from mid 2000’s still sell over 50k used with very high bale counts. Early 100 series bandits down under 10k if you get a non updated one but most have been back for at least some of the updates to fix the issues corrected by the end of 100 series. The 200 series seem to be good to go right from new so far.
My baler came from a guy running an old baron, he and one man run 4000 bales a day through it. This is 5th year, something like 500,000 bales now no baron issues. Not a mechanical guy either, threading baler about his limit of fixing.

"Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor."
