Price Check Deere 5103 price

[deerefan]

Hello and good morning to all,
I just purchased a new 5103 with a slightly used (only a month old) mid duty 6 ft "Bushhog" brand rotary cutter. I paid about $13,500. Any input on whether this is a good deal would be very appreciated for I am new to the John Deere brand. I have two 8Ns with impeccable track records but needed something stronger. Was this a good deal? The tractor will be delivered tomorrow.
Thanks to all,
Dave

Heck a 6' bushhog cutter can cost upwards of $3000.

I'd say you robbed em'. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

yea...i think i did to...the cutter was "used" but had not one scratch on it and the blades were not even dull or rusted yet...the salesman, who i might add was very informative, said he used it once or twice. Speaking of salesmen, my wife and went to look at mahindra tractors before we went to the deere place. She is pretty knowledgable about the basics of tractors and was asking legitimate questions. Get this...the salesman all but ignored her. She would ask the question, he would look at her, look back at me then answer the question to me. Treated her like she did not exsist. Poor salemanship...and he was the owner of the company. Cost himself the deal.
