How much would you give?

[spent21]

So I came across this guy. How much would you give? 2nd owner says he used it twice and put it in storage. Everything is tight. The pulleys don't even have the paint worn off of them.

It is a 16.5" free standing press with a 3/4 120v motor.

It needs a good cleaning, but otherwise, everything is square, no runout and solid...






I came across this ad that is asking $650.

If I came across that at a garage sale, I'd offer $150 for it.

$150 tops IMHO.

I'd say $200 if you needed one.. But I really don't know anything about it

I'm with the $150 max crew. Older, good quality drill presses come up around here regularly for less than that. I paid $50 for mine.

I'm also with the $150 crew. These things come up fairly often. If it was in real good condition and I REALLY wanted it, maybe a bit more - but I am not an expert on this sort of thing.

$150 sounds good. Was it around $400 new?

 

[rsanter]

I agree with $150. Because it has so little use I would go to $200 tops if I really needed it, wanted it, or couldn't find anything else
