Hartford CT - deal on BX front blade w/quick hitch

[amigauser]

I just saw this on the local Hartford CT Craigs list.

I am not sure if this is ok to post but I hope it is. It appears the seller is including both the Kubota quick hitch and blade for $1200.

No a bad deal. I just purchased almost the same set up and I'm at $1650.00 including the addition of the $160.00 Rubber (squeegee) edge.

[kcoulouris]

$1,650 for the whole setup is a great deal, especially if you bought it new.

I was under the impression that the blade alone listed for around $1,800 and the quick hitch was another $600 or so. Am I that far off?

If the Quick hitch on the one in Hartford would fit my B7610, I would think seriously about picking it up for $1,200. But unfortunately, most of the blades that I see for sale come with the BX quick hitch assembly.

If I could find a deal like that for my 7800, I'd have it in a heartbeat.

Following are list prices from the 07 price book:
BX2763A 60 Snow/Utility Blade Hydraulic Angle $ 1,010.00

BX2762 Skid Shoes required for BX2763. $ 106.00

B2766 Rubber (squeegee) edge to protect surfaces $ 160.00

BX2751 Quick-hitch subframe $ 470.00
This assumes that you have a FEL which provides the hydraulic valve components.

My price was about a 5% discount which is OK with me as dealer assembled the plow and delivered it and I just plain like the guys and want them to make a buck.

I don't see a picture of this in the ad so asssume it's not included for the $1200.
I had to have that too because the BX1500 don't have a FEL but it was included in the $1500 I paid.

Rpoage,

Thank you for the pricing information. If I can use that plow on my B-Series, it will be a reasonably priced alternative for me. I'm thinking that my dealer quoted me on the B-series plow, at a much higher price. I recall that he quoted the BX snowblower for me, so I would expect the BX plow to fit the B-series quick hitch as well.
