Buying a mini excavator off of Machinery Trader?

[MK19]

So, we've been looking around for a used Kubota Kx121/040 or 161/057 and not much coming up locally, plus the whole tax thing on a used unit is BS IMO. Anyways, has anyone been successful buying a machine off of Machinery Trader?

I found my Caterpillar E70B on Machinery Trader. Then I called the number to the right side of the ad and dealt with the owner directly. I even bought two buckets this way. Don't know about the tax thing, since I have an Ag exemption.

Do you happen to have a service manual for your E70B? I have one as well with serial number 7YF*** and am having trouble finding a manual. Thanks in advance. Seth

My overhaul manual and operators manual are for 5TG-1 and up. I bought it off of Amazon or Ebay.............and it wasn't cheap.
