Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Anything is possible. The question is, is it economically practical?

See this Jimmy? $1,500.00 and I'll tell you how to "Save as" those pictures. Originally Posted by weldermike Duane he will not budge, trust me. I gave him the ultimate deal a while back, and just reoffered it, and he is not budging! And trust me, I was playing hardball. In the long run I would have lost with my offer and he knew it! You are definitely not a easy man to do business with CEP! Mike, JAS as been taking advantage of me for years! About time I get him at least once.

Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by duaneb55 Not at all. JAS made the offer of his own free will. Dam! I was hoping to take advantage of him, he's been in my pocket for almost 30-years!
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Not at all. JAS made the offer of his own free will.

Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by JAS Alright, alright, $1200? OK! It'll have to be cash, I don't know you well enough to accept a personal check!
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by CEP As temping as that is, I need to stay away from you. Every time I see you my parts stash seems to go down! Alright, alright, $1200?
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by JAS I'll double your money...will you take $900 for both? As temping as that is, I need to stay away from you. Every time I see you my parts stash seems to go down!

Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by 7A749 Yeah. I seriously he's gonna be selling a red face for a grand.

Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 if you decide to sell i would be happy to double your investment, but the wood blocks have to be included. beautiful machines.
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by 7A749 A resale guy isn't gonna part with one that cheap. No way in hell.

It sounds kinda crappy, but if you're in the resale biz & you can't get non running machines cheap & sell them at a good profit, you're not gonna make any money. I sell refurbished Maxtrons with a warranty for around $1800 & up. On average, I pay maybe $200 at the very most for a dead machine. I like to pay less, being if the board is toast, it's the most expensive part to find for one. The rest of the parts are pretty available & cheap if you know where to look for them. I decline to sell anything unless its refurbished with a warranty. The parts are more valuable to me to build working machines out of than what little ill get selling one to a guy for cheap as a non working machine. Very true Steve, that's how business works. Me personally I would call the guy and tell him i'll be there tomorrow with a grand in my pocket. Can you have a redface running for me. If so sold. I like to make money as well as spend it, and so does everybody else. So you can keep looting around looking to get that killer deal from a old persons family member that past away, or do what you gotta do and be done. What's your time worth!
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by CEP I paid $250.00 for the one in the first picture, and $200.00 for the one in the second picture. Show off! My offer still stands bud. Snip Snip!
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Ok. I was gonna offer 300 and see what he says. I thought 3 was low even for a non running sa200
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 $500, and not welding or running he knows it. He's probably got those machines all five minutes away from welding and running anyway. Tell him that you will wait and watch and if he gets one up and going for you you'll give him a thousand.
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 I wish it was $1000 for all of them!! Yes he referbs them and sells them, but I just want one "as is" How much would you offer for one?
Re: What should I look for in a SA 200 Originally Posted by wnywelder Did they work and look like that when you bought them for that price, or did they need some love to get them looking that beautiful? Just a little TLC! The Red Face didn't weld, but took me about 15-minutes to get it to weld.
