Cost of used 24" concrete pipes?

[Keith01]

I have been planning on diverting a drain tile that dumps into my front yard. Adding a drop box and more tile to push the water to the side of the lot.

I just spotted an offer on Craigslist for used concrete tiles, make offer.
He isnt sure what sizes he has (at his Mom's house), but go ahead and look and make me an offer. I should eb able to look this weekend.

I called a cement plant, and they get $20.62 per foot for 24" dia.

I've never bought these before, and have no idea the price for new or used.

Any suggestions from the Old Wise Ones on the Forum???!!!

Thanks,

From the "for what it's worth" file: I sold 4 of them a couple years ago for $50. The buyer didn't quibble, just came back about 20 minutes later with a trailer & I loaded him up.

I would offer about .10 a foot... but I'm a cheapo.

I went a looked at the drain tile over the weekend. I think I could get them for a sone, BUT I have no way of loading them.
Best I could do is tow my JD 755 there and put them on my trailer. MAke a couple of trips.
But looking at these things, and pushing on them, I estimate them at about 800 lbs.
My JD doent have that much lift (I think).

Any ideas how to unstack these and load them on a trailer??
