Buying Advice Selling/trading in my 1982-ish Iseki/Bolens G242: What's it worth?

[kjeldskov]

I've got the "new tractor bug" and I'm ready to either sell or trade in my good old Bolens G242. I wonder what it is worth?
It's in good shape, 470 hours, and it had one mishap -- I rolled it once. No engine damage as I am a diesel tech, turned it off right away, and cleaned everything out before restarting it. Just some hood and seat damage that I was able to straighten out.
So, Ideas on what it might bring?
Thanks,
Kim

I paid $2500 for my TS1610. That was ten years ago. I have been very happy with the TS1610. A G242 with more horse power would only be better. Photos would help. I see asking prices up to $4k - $6k for these tractors.

See if the local feed store has a free for sale bulletin board, after that it is Craigslist. But be careful of scammers on Craigslist.

I my last tractor purchase was on Craig's list, a Mahindra 2015HST. But I still use the Iseki with my rotary mower. My Iseki is smaller and better to mow in the tight spaces between the trees on my property.
