eBay/Craigslist Preparations to sell my BX2200

[J Paul Munson]

The time to downsize and move closer to the big city has come for me and my trusty BX2200 (2003-888hrs) and support cast: front loader LA211, backhoe -Woods BH6000 (2005), 54" rotary mower, DR Chipper pto 3 point hitch(2010), tandem trailer 14' about 6000 gross (electric brakes, 24" side walls, ramps), and a unique fixed mount dual pivot trailer (4.5'x4'x32 deep box) with an adapter hitch to push it with the loader, attach it to the back of the chipper, or another hitch to the 3 point on the tractor.

What should I ask for this chorus? Sell it piece by piece? I'd like to sell it all as a package. All a buyer has to do is come with his truck. Load it up, hook it up, and go. I have put together, so far, an ad on eBay (ad ID: 16321923) Everything is in top condition.

Check listings on tractorhouse.com for what asking prices are for your BX2200 without all the attachments (your combination is likely to be unique). I think you're better off selling any attachments that can fit on any make of tractor separately since you're not likely to find someone looking for all that you have as a package. If they make you an offer, they'll like discount what they don't really need/want. If it were me, I'd sell the tractor/loader/Backhoe/mid mower as a package and the rest separately, but I'd mention all the rest in the add with separate prices and also what you want for the whole package. By the way, there's a private party classified forum here that you might want to list it on. Pic's are always helpful. Good luck.

Tractorhouse is a start but depends if you want top dollar or a quick sale. I made someone a good deal they were happy with and wasn't concerned so much with getting every penny possible. Didn't give it away but I was ready to get rid of it and didn't want the hassle of negotiating back and forth. Not the popular opinion probably but some on those sites are way too high, at least for my area.

Yup. Those are certainly inflated prices. Without knowing what they eventually, actually, really sell for? It is merely a starting point. Better than nothing, but those prices seldom hold up. I'd deduct 10% right off the top.
