Shop Tool Pricing

[AndyF]

I'm looking at some used tools through an estate sale and trying to determine a fair price. The tools are a small Bridgeport vertical mill (36" table) with 2 axis DRO and single phase motor, an Enco 12X36 gear head bench lathe w/3 & 4 jaw chucks and a Hobart 175 MIG welder. The Bridgeport is older while the lathe and welder are fairly new. Its been almost 20 years since I last priced this type of equipment so I need an update.

I can help with one part of the puzzle. The Hobart MIG welder is $650 at Tractor Supply and it comes with a two wheeled stand/cart. I think I saw that one on sale for somewhere under $600 recently. I hope this helps. Good luck. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

I bought a 42"table Bridgeport 3PH w/o DRO and std. vise for $2250.
The machine was in very good shape (NO holes in table).
I saw some tables that looked like swiss cheese.
Good machines should go $2000 to 3000.
The lathe is around $2000 new.
