This thread is not confusing but contacting TSC has got me confused. In Western Pa the 212712125 72 inch tiller in the blue book is 1999.00, In Ohio (about 15 miles to the store from me)it is 1899.00 same tiller. So I decided to call a store by Columbus Ohio,about a 3 1/2 hour drive,but to save 600 .00 worth it. They quoted me 1899.00. I told them that the same tiller the OP bought was going for 1399.00. They said the # in the book was for a King Cutter not a County Line and it was a miss print,that the 1399.00 tiller is a County Line and that the # in the book is for a King Cutter and that one is 1899.00. They said the County Line was cheaper made,but I thought the last time I looked at one in the store it had County Line on it and it said made by King Cutter. Either I am being blown smoke or there are 2 different tillers,possibly both made by King Cutter. One is built cheaper then the other,according to them. I got this info from the Circleville Ohio TSC store.
I contacted King Kutter,they told me there is a good chance that the County line tiller in Western Pa. is not made by them. They do however make tillers for other TSC locations and badge them County Line. They gave me the 2 King Kutter dealers closest to me,1 in Pa. and the other in Ohio. For the Pro series one was Quoted 1874.00 in Pa and 1649.00 in Ohio. This was for the 72 inch 780 pound model.

Well, I live in northern Kershaw County so I'd say I'm pretty close to wherever your farm is. I actually stay just East of the town of Kershaw in the Buffalo community. I go to Camden quite a bit but work in Lancaster.

I picked up a 60" when they were on sale for 100 less a couple of weeks ago, equalled 1459 at my local tsc. When I looked at the tillers they had, 2 countyline and 2 king kutters, they were exactly the same except for the stickers and the countyline had an aluminum stand. The king kutters they had didn't have a stand like in the below picture. They even had the same model number on them.
The countyline looked exactly like this except for the KK stickers:
Even though I paid for a KK the guy told me I could take whichever one I wanted.

Here's a link to the one online CountyLine Tiller, 72 in. - 2127125 | Tractor Supply Company
It's listed as Countyline & 1999.99. So they're saying that's a miss print online?
It's the same sku in my local store: I'm going to look a little more closely now, this is interesting.
If there is a difference, I would choose the cheaper model anyway considering the number of hours I will use it.

Ok, I figured it out. I just got home and looked at the tiller. It's still in the shipping crate in my pickup.
This tiller is made by Tarter Industries. Tarter Farm & Ranch Equipment - manufacturer of farm and small animal equipment
It doesn't say Countyline anywhere on it. The SKU is the same as the TSC website but it's not the same tiller.
Tarter Industries doesn't list a 6ft. tiller on their website (only a 5 footer).
I like the price and I won't be putting many hours on it. I just hope it's not junk.
I'm not taking it back. I'll give an update after I use it.

Well, that same 72" Tarter tiller is sitting at my local TSC and has a price of $1849. Read this on their website: Tarter Farm and Ranch Equipment - Manufacturer of farm gates and animal management and feeding equipment
It sounds lke they plan to give King Kutter and others some stiff competition.
