Just let the thread die already.
I can see you really believe that.:laughing: It would be dead if you hadn't revived it.
No, it's not on consignment. It belongs to Barlows who does have it for sale. Being the former owner and knowing the quality of the machine and it's history is why I put the info here so forum members that are hunting for the finest mower made will know about it, where it's located and how much the seller (Barlows) is asking for it.
For a competing dealer to knock another dealers price instead of offering one they have for sale and give their price is, well IMHO not, well my opinion has dropped a notch.
I don't think having something for sale has to go in ads and can't be posted here. Maybe the moderators will give their opinion on that.
