Kenny here, good friend of Wayne's and the prez of the club...

The gang mowers are great, just do not let the grass get to tall or you will have problems with cut quality. The blades are self-sharpening by a friction bar that touches them in the rear and is adjustable for optimum drag on the reel. We bought our setup used about 10-12 years ago...not sure what we paid.
Check around some golf courses, find the maintenance shop and have some cash and beer with you, you might just get lucky!

Another thing to remember when using it is to plan your route carefully, you CANNOT back these things up! We used to tow it with a pickup truck before we bought tractors!
