If you can get one from $1500 - $2000 then it would be a fair deal.  For you streest, I would spend that money getting the concrete driveway fixed.  This is something I may have to do in a few years because my original builder did not do such a good job.

I have been looking on CL (out of state) and stumbled upon this machine but he wants 2200.00..... One of my boss' is interested.

Then today I found a 928 tracked Honda five years old as well and he is asking 1950 but is interested in a trade and cash for my Toro. When I asked why he is selling it guy said he is too tall and that the Honda is uncomfortable??? Not sure of the Honda's height .......or even the truth. What is a fair cash offer including my 826OXE??

The price is whatever you are willing to sell and a buyer is willing to pay for it.  If you price it right then it gets sold.  It is not a science but rather an art.  For example, people asking $200 for HS35 are not going to get much action but if you sell it around 50-100, you have much better chance.  The real question is, do you want your 826OXE gone or just want to test the water.

I saw some people asking $400 for an H35.I wonder if they could sell it for that price. :D

I'm 5'9" and find my HS928TA to be fairly comfortable for me (could be a bit higher though) but I could understand where a taller operator would find the standard handle height uncomfortable.Honda sells a handle extension kit that increases the handle height a bit for taller operators. I'd offer the 826OXE (at a presumed value of $ 800.00) and another $ 800.00 cash. IMO, used OPE should sell for 1/2 to 1/3 (or somewhere in between) the value of current or comparable OPE. Knowing the previous owner and their maintenance habits/OPE type of useage is bonus points and could add/subtract $$$ to the buying price. Having this knowledge definitely increases/decreases the value accordingly.

I see a local HS724 (track) being listed for $1500.00 CDN.  It looks almost mint.  No mention of what year it is.  I know that if it was bought locally, the owner paid well over 3K for it and likely closer to 3.5K all in.

Despite the knowledge that it's a top notch machine, not sure I'd pay that much for a used one.  However, new one are still ridiculously expensive.  I compared new Hondas to the new Yamahas and I'd give the nod to Yamaha.  They have some real nice touches on their machines.  I particularly like Yamaha's shock drive protection for the auger as well as plastic lined impeller housing and chute.  Prices are just as nuts as Honda but Yamaha seems to give you more for the money.

Tell me about it, CEO, executive VP, VP manufacturing, VP production to name a few......

He mentioned a grand plus my machine, there is no way imo that its fair. He purchased it last year so at  the least he is the secnond owner. The main issue is he is 150 miles away which adds another 150 (gas and tolls) nevermind probably 3 hours each way so I think this is a no go. If I knew more about the machine I would be all over it, dont think I will get another chance to trade a blower and cash for a Honda JMHO.

Nevermind not sure how I am going to like the tracks having such a small property.....
