3pth mount or does it have a subframe? Does it have a pto pump and tank or does it plumb into the tractor hydraulics?
How fast are you looking to sell it? I would think it would bring more $ in the spring. If you can attach some pics, that would help.

Thank you for your reply... It is def. a 3 point mount. It really is in pristine shape...anything else I need to describe prior to trying to sell it ? I am in no hurry as it has been in the same place literally for close to 14 years !

Hearth, i'm on my over with a grand in cash right now !!!;)



Seriously though, i looked at several used hoes that size before i bought the one i have now. They were in the $2500 range, but i've seen similar used hoes selling from $1000 to $3500. If yours is as nice as you claim, i see it in the $2300 - $3000 range.... depending on whether its a 3 point mount, subframe mount, self contained, or runs off of tractor hydraulics. Of course..... people aren't spending money like they used to, so it also depends on how quickly you want to move it. Have you considered listing it on Ebay?

If it is self contained, it will have a hydraulic pump down low where it attaches to the tractor, about the size of a cantelope..... attached only with two rubber hoses. If it runs off the tractors hydraulics, it will have no pump...... just two rubber hoses, probably connected to each other at their ends.

As Shvl73 said, if there is any chance you could post a few digital pics of it, we would probably be able to help you more.

Thank you for your help... I will need to check on if it has a pump or not.. it is def. 3 point hitch though... your advice to wait till spring is excellent.

Thanks all !

That's exactly what I was looking for!!!

For whatever reason, I can only view half the thread, but I gather that you're looking to sell it. If you are, please PM me. I'm not far away in NE Mass, so I could come pick it up. Thanks!

Ductape, what happened to that pretty blue hoe that you bought for a song? :D

It is clear from the pics that it is a 3 pt hoe (not that it could not be converted to a subframe) and it is self contained with its own hyd pump, tank and filter. Very nice looking hoe.

Thanks Ductape ! If I think it is taking up too much room till spring, I might take you up on that more than generous offer !!!

Thanks again to all of you for your help... these forums are so helpful and I really enjoy the banter and the advice !

Best,
