No doubt $1300 is an excellent price for an 8 wheel rake.
A WR20 Vermeer rake was made by Tonutti before the World-Agra fiasco. This means it is no longer in production and the parts DO NOT EXSIST. Most parts can be fabricated. Because of the parts situation $500-800 is more the value. Just call a Vermeer dealer and they will tell you they have no parts support for these rakes.
I have seen some for sale, that had the rale wheels replaced. Not sure where they got the parts. They Must interchange with other brandsA WR20 Vermeer rake was made by Tonutti before the World-Agra fiasco. This means it is no longer in production and the parts DO NOT EXSIST.

A lot of rake wheel/parts will interchange. I've been installing Kuhn rake wheels on my H&S Hi-cap rake because I think Kuhn wheel teeth last longer raking than H&S rake teeth.I have seen some for sale, that had the rale wheels replaced.
