Recommendation-Barlow Equipment

[GSmith]

I just took delivery of a loader for my BX1500 from Brady Barlow at Barlow equipment. The buying process was painless and the price excellent. When I received the unit, there were a couple issues with one missing item and a damaged contol valve. (keep in mind that this unit was a New old stock item that has been in inventory for quite a while). Both items were in original sealed packaging that was not damaged externally, so Brady would have had no way of knowing of the issues.

After contacting Brady, he immediately made it right with apoligies and no excuses. Its clear to me that other dealers could learn from his professionalism and customer service.

I would highly recommend this dealer to anyone looking for a honest person with a fair deal. Buy in confidence.

Barlow Equipment = A first class operation.

I bought my L3240 from Brady and he gave me one He!! of a deal.
They also have excellent customer service. I'd buy again from Barlow equipment without even blinking

Barlow's offered me a much better price on my L3240 package, but this being
my 1st tractor I opted to go with a local dealer. Glad to see Barlow's is a
top rated dealer, I will consider them in the future.

I have recommended them before and I will recommend now. I even had a small issue that they took care of far better than my local dealer would have.
First Class. By the way they about 1200 miles from where I live.
Hey Brady!

What were your shipping charges like to the Northeast?

I did not yet ask them for a quote but I did ask Carver Equipment and they did not want to ship to NY due to the excessive shipping costs now. I was told to buy locally at this time.

What was the outcome of taxes? Barlow informed me that they would not charge nor collect taxes on delivery but I am not sure that you will not get hit with a tax bill if they tracked the ship to address...like at a weigh station along the route.

I asked Barlow for a full quote so I guess I will see if they break it down...other option is two make two trips to New Hampshire and buy there..using a po address.

Thanks for everyone's business and all the kind words.

As for the tax question, if you purchase outside of your home state, most states ask that you report your purchase to your home state and pay their 'usage tax' which is typically equal to their sales tax. This is pretty much uniform across the country. gp1200x, I hope this answers your question.

I would like to add my experience with Brady and Barlow Equipment. I bought a used BX1500 from them last year and everything was just as Brady said it would be. The machine was clean and very well prepped. They did a service on it and delivered it and sent me extras that I wanted via Fed Ex in a tiimely manner. Brady was and still is very helpful to me with any questions I have. I am impressed with the service after the sale even though I am about 150 miles away! I highly recommend them and will do business with them again.

I just about bought a M9540DT from Brady and now I wish I had. The local dealer wouldn't get involved in a real concern over a warranty. He came to my home but did no real physical testing to see what the problem was and shame on them because my wife's suggestion found a bent rim on the front axle. Loyalty is out these days and politically incorrect my CT Yankee friend...if your happy, I'm happy ole Ob1...

I bought a used BX1500 from them last Nov.
Great place to deal with.

What were your shipping charges like?

My cost was lower from them than buying locally even after paying shipping charges.
Buying 2 tractors may have helped some on that though.

Barlow's gave me an excellent price, however since I've never owned a tractor before, I felt I might need to use my local dealers tech support, and
training. I'm sure my next tractor purchase or implement purchase I will use Barlow's

where is barlow, and how do you find the equipment?

My son and I purchased the first and if it wasn't the first B26 from Brady it was real close to it last year. We could have not have asked for a better handling of a great sale. Everything was handled in a very professional manner and have recommended him to 2 or 3 more people of which one has bought from him already.

I'm in the NE area and have a very picky dealer (large 6 miles from home) and we were very concern about requesting service from them on a hydraulic leak as we bought from Brady. All worries were for not as they just schedule us like anyone else and took us right in did and excellent job and had the tractor back in a day.

Another satisfied customer of Brady Barlow here. It was a pleasure dealing with him, and I plan to purchase additional implements from him in the future.

I was not at all impressed with any of the local Kubota dealer sales departments, and after my experience with Brady, would recommend him to anyone, anywhere in the country. My tractor was delivered on April 29th, 2008, and even with paying my state's "use tax", I still saved nearly $2000. I am currently at 47 hours, and will be performing the 50 hour service myself.
