Price Check Is this price good for a used cub cadet?

[joseph39421]

I called a Cub Cadet dealer today to see if they had any used mowers for sale, he said he didnt but he new a individual that has a Cub Cadet 2166 for sale. The dealer gave me the guys phone number and I called and asked him about the mower, he said it was a 2166 with 200 hrs on it, he said he has always kept it under a closed shed and he says it looks like a new one, he said he paid 2699.00 for the mower new. He bought a zero turn mower and said he didnt need the cub any more, he said the cub 2166 is in excelent condition I havent seen it yet I will go look at it monday. Is 200 hrs alot for this type mower? I have 2 acres of centipead that ill be mowing and the ground here is really smooth and flat, plus I just bought a nice new 12-20 shed thats full inclosed to put it in if I did buy it.

My honest opinion I would pass on it - the 2500 series is a better machine. Its new and close enough in price to make it a clear decision...

Good luck

sorry I misread the post - he stated he originally paid that but after 200 hrs it will be nowhere near that price - we dont know what he is asking yet, but 200 hrs could be a lot or not at all - all depends on how well maintained

The guy said its been well maintained and he said it looks like a new mower, I havent actually seen it yet, he said he wonts 1200.00 for it. Just wondering if that price is good?
