I almost always buy used: vehicles or equipment. But I never buy anything I have any suspicion about. I sometimes search for a couple of years. And I only want to buy from an individual and I talk to him, judge his character, and his integrity. If he is abrupt, and not forth coming I walk away. I bought a used disc mower once, from a dairy farmer. I did ok: what it needed was what he said it needed. I bought a round baler from a dealer, and while the baler was ok, the monitor was not. But I could not have found that out with the dealer, but I would have from an individual who had used it versus the dealer who took it on a trade and knew nothing about it. But there is a big risk with a disc mower, because gears and bearings are expensive, and a lot of hard work to replace, as you found out. And like Bruce says, reliable is important when hay needs put up, especially the baler! Mark.
