Grapple What is a 2yr old ATI bucket grapple worth?

[jdgreg]

Just about done with what I needed it for, and was wondering what one would be worth. When I bought it, price of steel jumped up quite a bit, it cost me $850 2 yrs ago. It's still in great condition, no bent tines, etc. I was thinking around $650, and listing it here and on craigslist.

That sounds realistic. You can decide on how firm you want to be (with the price) when you get some responses.

I'm guessing it depends on how universal it is. If it's custom fit to your bucket, it'll be a bit harder to sell. If it's more of a universal design, it should be easier to get your money. One of the hard things you're going to have to deal with is the cheap ebay grapples; eBay: Universal Grapple for skid steer or frontend loader (item 260110179666 end time Apr-27-07 11:52:27 PDT)
Yes, I'm sure the ATI is better, but if it has to be modified to fit a different tractor anyway, is it $400 better than the ebay cheapie? It also depends on what exactly you're selling; just the grapple, the grapple and a diverter, the grapple and a set of long lines to go to a rear remote, etc? Good luck either way, I'm still deciding whether to make one of my own or buy the ebay cheapie.
