Allan, You MUST have a bucket-o-cash just to afford all that shiney red paint you've been buyin'....

Those 750 drills sell for MEGA-dollar... I've seen a couple "wrecks" sell for $7500, but expect $10,000 for a good condition model. (and maybe MORE)

The "artificial inflated value" is because they're the #1 no-till soybean drill as we speak. You'd be better off (since you're wanting to save a few pennies) to look for something "pre-90's" before the solid-stand no-till soybean craze hit.

The Deere 8300 is a good alternative, as is the IH model (# escapes me at this moment) built in the late 70's early 80's. The old Deere FB-B is a good piece if you can find one not ravaged by time...
