Woods Box Blade help

[RJJR]

I'd like your opinion these three choices.

1. New Woods BSS72 for $850

2. New HB72 (year old some fade but still strapped on pallet) $1100

3. Used HB72 (new teeth on scarfiers) $875


I have a DK45 and want to grub some small roots in areas that I've cleard and still move dirt, work on trails etc.

Thanks

I found a decent box blade on Craigslist for cheap.

You seem to be in PA. Not that far I'm afraid.
Thanks

I found my used one at a used equipment dealer online. It was about $1/lb at 1100lbs. I started searching for box scrapers with no names or widths and it came up as he had no real description posted. I had to call to confirm how wide it was and went 150 miles to get it but I like it. New it would be $3k+ up here.
I did look for a couple months though.

I was going to try to find you one in NC. There seems to be one available near every city I looked at.

Mighty neighborly of you. 50-75 miles is about as far as I'd want to go one way.
thanks
