Value of 5' Woods light duty rotary cutter?

[Midniteoyl]

All depends here.. Early spring seems to go cheaper around $400-500 for a LD Woods. Now, its $650-750. Come almost winter and it'll be around $400 again..

Yep. Something like 200 or 250 is what I paid. But if you remember, it looked bad and had a big gash in the deck. Still very solid and worthy of fixing and painting though. But I "assume" the guy thought it was just another light duty 6' cutter. Cause thats about what they bring as well. I know it was good though.

Here is a few examples of what money buys in my area

woods rotary cutter
Rotary Cutter/Brush Hog
Bush hog brand rotary mower 6'
Befco 48" brush hog 3 point hitch cheap
5ft brush hog

Sure, there are listings asking way more money. But it is unlikely IMO that they will sell for what they ask.

And actually, just quickly searching, this is the fewest about of bargain cutters I have seen in awhile. Wrong time of year I guess. But it dont take too much searching to find working light duty cutters for 200-300. And a few hundred more (400-500) gets good looking like new ones often.

I'm going to Ohio! They were like that around here early in the year, but now are $600 and up for pretty much 'ok' units..

Come on over. Not that far away from you. But I am suprised there isnt an abundance of deals like that in your area. You too are still part of the mid-west, and I though equipment prices were pretty similar over there

Example.. Weird how just a few hundred miles makes a big difference..

You are right, there aint much out there.

A word of advise though, to whoever is looking and to whoever is selling...

5 keywords to use:
Bushhog
Bush Hog
Brush hog
Brushhog
Rotary Cutter.

If you are selling, try to use them all in your ad.

IF you are buying, search them all cause you get different results with each if those posting dont use all of them key-words.

Ya.. usually use the phrase separated by the | on Search Tempest

I'd say about $500 here in SW ohio

[GreatWhitehunter]

The replacement cost of the 5' brush bull in this area is $1800, that being said $750-900 is the going rate. Unless it's in real bad shape.

Hey Kevin,
How do you like your Sylvan Pontoon boat? I have a 22' Weeres tooner with a 115 4 stroke Merc. We have more fun on that boat than my parents 37' Egg Harbor!

We love the pontoon! It is in a marina about 30 miles away, so it gets used a lot on my days off! We have the same 115 4 stroke merc. Never any problems with the motor, but I have had two pontoon leaks. The exact same weld on each pontoon....
