Used Rollover Blade

JLoaf · Mar 14, 2005

I found a used Woods 6' rollover blade for sale.
It is somewhat rusty but looks to be in pretty good
shape otherwise.
Any ideas on what it is worth?
The seller is asking $750 - sounds a little high to me.

Yea, Sounds a little high to me in that condition. We have a almost new 5 ft HD for $550--Go to THIS page and scroll down for picture--Ken Sweet

Thanks for the input.
I made an offer of $600 for the blade.
That's all I'm willing to pay for it.
I haven't heard back from the owner yet.

I mentioned that it was a little rusty. Rust on the blades will come of with use. Rust on the frame, etc, is a different story.
This blade is listed at 975 lbs.
My 6' box blade is about 550 lbs and cost about $550 with my tractor.
I could use the extra 400 lbs!

J,

As long as it works well, I think it's a good deal. New rollovers are $$$. Rust on the frame isn't really an issue because the steel is so thick. If it bothers you, just wire brush it off and paint it. That thing could sit out in the weather for 50 years and still function. $600.00 sounds like a good price if he'll take it and it's in good physical shape other than surface rust.
