Pricing a B2150 for sale

[TimP]

I am close to buying a new tractor and need to sell my B2150 to help fund the new purchase.

I am hoping you all can give me some feedback on how to price it.

It is a B2150HSD/HST with Bi-Speed Turn. LA350A FEL, RC60-21B (60") Mid-Mount Mower, Drawbar, Upgraded Dynamo (40 Amp), Turf tires in great condition, 900 Hours.

Just serviced by local Kubota Dealer, Oil, Lube, Filters as well as full service on the mower deck. Gearbox oil, blades.

It's been garage kept since I bought it and is in good condition.

The ones I have seen for sale have been priced at around $8,000.

I was thinking of asking the same for it.... $8,000.

So what do you think? Opinions... comments ?

Thanks !

Bought my B1750 with similar equipment and 1,100 hrs. about 7-8 years ago for $6,500. The people I bought it from said they could have sold it 3 or 4 times after we struck the deal. I don't think your asking price is too high to start with.

Hi Jim in ICT.

Thanks. I think it's going to be priced about where it should be at $8K.

I think I'll take a few pictures and perhaps, post it in the classified section here on TBN.

If not much action, then I may spread out with craigslist and maybe even ebay.

Tim, I think you're too low at $8K for that setup in that condition with those low hours. It's an ideal tractor for a small commercial landscape operation, especially since it can also do double duty for snow removal in the off season. Which is right around the corner. I'd start at $9K and see what happens.

What size tractor are you planning to move to? You've said you need to sell to help buy the next one. But is there any way you can defer that until you have some hours on your new one? If you are planning to move up two or three frame sizes, I think you're really going to miss it's quickness and maneuverability.

Hi Threepoint.

I have my eye on a used B3000HSDCC equipped with a LA403 Loader w/Pinned 60" bucket, a 60" mid-mower deck, B2782B front mount snow blower, and a Landpride 72" rear blade, radio and Turf tires. It only has 270 hours on it and has been garage kept.

So it's slightly larger than the B2150. If that deal does not work out, I think I may go with a brand new B2650, not sure if I will go cab or not.

Kubota has a 60 Month 0% interest deal right now, which makes a new one attractive.

I guess I can always start at $9K for the 2150..... I can always go down in price but not up !

Sorry ! I was wrong about the number of hours on my B2150.

I looked at the hour meter last night, and it read 1207 Hours.... not 900.

Still not excessive.

I must have been having another Senior Moment.
