Price Check Used BX 2200 Price

[patio]

Hi all, I'm neew to the tractor scene and would like some advice from the pros.I found a Used BX 2200 for sale with 35hrs on the clock it has a FEL, 60MMM and rear scraper blade.I was wondering what a fair price for this set up would be?

First, I'm no pro. Second, for all intents and purposes, that's a new machine and the asking price should correspond. If it's not on a dealer's lot, I would ask a few pointed questions about why it's being sold and where it came from. Is there more to the story you can share, e.g what year is it? Any obvious points of wear? A machine with 35 hours should still be gleaming with dealer wax, a few clippings under the deck and a couple of scratches in the FEL. If the asking price is well below retail and there's no verifiable, sincere story to go with it (bankruptcy, divorce, etc.) something is going on behind the scenes.

Keep in mind you still get the warranty and such. I'd ask how it was broke in and ask if the first service has been done. At 35 hours your pretty close to the first 50hr service and that will cost ya some change. Good luck.

You might want to check the autotrader (equipment trader) online to give a basic idea then compare the local dealers prices on new, once in a while there are some demos floating around with new tractor warranty. Just don't see many used ones around here. Last summer saw a used one in Chesterfeild twp and they're price was about 500 less than new and no warranty. What part of S.E. Mich are you from?

Yeah, I've been checking equipment trader regularly and used kubotas are hard to come by. I'm from Clarkston Mi. and just pot a 1000 square foot addition ont he house and think a BX would be a great tool for backfilling and landscaping my 3 acres. You're into little cars? I just sold my 356 speedster replica to buy the tractor.

The bx is fun little tractor, it works well and unintentionally falls into the house hold joke " its just one more thing I don't fit in or on" put some pics of my rops lighting in the customization heading or if you need a chuckle started putting pics in a yahoo account its missing a few toys but its a start: photos.yahoo.com/toysfortony slowly restoring a MGB and the motorcycles are not loaded yet but its getting there
Bought mine from Michigan Skid Loader in Shelby twp nice group of people and the guys in Dryden have also been great.
