BX1500 Used value?

[kwolfe]

I could have bought a new one with a front blade and a rear tiller for $8500
No mower at the 85 hundred price.
Another dealer gave me a price of $6250 for a new BX 1500 with a 54'' mower.
*$8000 for used sounds high by comparison.

My price included the FEL I added. Thhe LA181 will run around $2000-$2500 depending on where you are.

I bought a BX1500 this past winter from a dealer in Wisconson. With 94 hours and a 54" deck, I paid $6200. The FEL ran me $2000. I figure you could ask around $8000 to start.

Is this $6200 for everything including the Tractor 54'' deck and the FEL or did you pay the dealer $6200 for the BX1500 with the 54'' deck then buy the FEL for an additional $2000 making the total $8200?
I'm a bit confused as to what you actually paid -was it 6200 or 8200 TOTAL ?

BX1500 + 54" MMM + FEL = $8200

What do you think of $8500.oo for new with a front blade and a rear tiller?

Sorry for the delayed reply. I've been out of town.

I think that sounds pretty fair. I don't know the prices in your area, but we don't get much of a discount on equipment around here.

Take care!

A pretty good formula for figureing value is take 20% the first year and 10% each additional year after that then adjust up or down a little dependig on condition, hours, ect.

I think I'll start with the suggested $8,200.00, Seems decent from all the posts I have read here and elsewhere.

Thanks for all the information.

I am just outside of Owasso.

The BX1500 is a great little machine and can get into places a larger tractor just couldn't go.
*I really would like to keep it and get the B7800 too! But that is just not financially practical.

*I'm keeping the BX23 and am buying 2 BX1500s but I'm getting rid of 2 Bolens and a CC in order to do it.

Hello,
I am seriously considering selling my BX1500 - just turned over 103 hours. Mobil 1 synthetic oil and always stored in the barn. Used mainly for the FEL and only mowed maybe 10 acres total since new.
I bought new from Enlow Tractor East, in Tulsa, Oklahoma in early 2003
It has the LA-181 loader and the 48" MMM.

Any ideas as to what asking price I should go with?

Any advice is appreciated....Thanks! Carl Bill
