Opico 12t gas drier value

I'm looking at selling our 1980's Opico 12 gas fired PTO drier. It's in good working order, complete with DCM box, having completed harvest last year. We now have a new Masters so looking at selling the Opico. I have someone interested who made me an offer on the phone without even seeing it or photos so I might be selling it too cheaply!

I must admit it looks rusty now. I should have taken photos after harvest! It has been well maintained but has served us well having done 30 seasons for us.

I think that was the bargain of the day from what I saw. Hope he shows up here to tell us if it works and how he got it home. Prob worth more even as scrap 👍
Yes must admit I was tempted although I know nothing about them and I aim to have my small acreage cut at a sensible moisture so it can be sent on to its final destination the day after its cut.
I’ll keep my ear to the ground as it’s new home is only 5 mins drive away roughly.

I put one just like that on eBay this year and within 48hrs a guy from Yorkshire had bought it. Turns out he buys quite a few and does them up. He paid a couple of grand for it and sent a low loader down and we put it on. No worries! 😎
I can pass you his number if you wish.

That would be Josh at Recon Driers, top lad, had a few bits over the years from him. Got @Phil P sorted too.
