Morning all,
I’ve currently got two offers from my local case dealer for a new round baler, the first is a second hand 2014 new Holland br7070 crop cutter with only 4000 bales, obviously it’s pretty immaculate, they’re asking 18.5k€ for it.
the second is new case rb455 ( nh roll belt 150) it was a demo machine that never did any bales due to the wet summer we have had here, it’s well specced but with no knives, they’re offering it to me for 31000€ with a 2yr warranty which is supposedly a fairly big saving over new price.
the salesman is pushing the new one (obviously) however I can’t decide, I’m sure the case will be faster than the new Holland up the row, but I’m led to believe the br’s are good reliable machines and I’ve heard some horror stories about the new ones, and I’m not sure which is better value really..
which would you go for and why?
any input appreciated
