What sort of money are these balers making? Got one in the shed that's not been used for a few years I'm going to pull out and clean off and do 100 bales to shine up then sell.

It's not mint but always stored under cover, complete except flywheel plastic guard is broken and was working well last time out. Got the wider pickup on it, owned from a few years old. (I know hard without pictures) cheers

Without seeing it and assuming it works I would guess £1500.

That all? They were making 2-3k few years ago, Iv not looked for a long time tho. Bit late in the season now, they were going for export a lot at one time

Say youll have to do more than 100 bales to shine it if unused for several years.
Mine is 30 years old only does a thousand a year nowadays.
If l was offered 1500 for it they can have it straightaway. No demand for them ( any make ) around here.

What year? Need photos really. Sold my ‘99 in good condition for a lot more than £1500 a couple of months ago.

If you’re selling them for £1500 send em up this way!!!

As brc said what age?
Export trade for these. If really tidy maybe into UK market but if any age will be into a container.

 

[jg123]

I'll have to check age. I'd guess early 90's

Has it got the cover on it for the feeder tines?

No cover on top of feed tines if that's what you mean

Same as that but no top cover and no wheel on pickup. (Not quite as mint unfortunately) was sprayed with oil before it went in shed few years ago so hopefully will look better after a wash and few bales

Your description suggests early 90s (As you've said). Cover came on mid 90ish so was using that information to gauge it's age.
I think the 2-3k wouldn't be far out. Maybe 3 and a half?
Make strong money in farm sales this part of the world (all small balers do). A few dealers who export and cherry pick the best ones for retail.
