I love it, $2,700 for a 1200 with a bent drive shaft. Seriously? Someone has been doing drugs. :biggrin2:

Guys, guys, guys..........
It is not the seller that is nuts, it is the buyer.
If there is one.
The seller only loses time and effort to list it and a couple of dollars(?) if it does not sell.

CL is worse cause it cost zero.

Maybe we're sitting on gold mines! Mike, you'd be a WEALTHY man at those prices!

I agree the prices on CL are high. On the filp side its not hard at all to get a bunch of money tied up in these little guys. As for the parts, The rarer they are the more they are going to ask. The tractor with the bent drive shaft looks pretty good in those shots. The 102 doesn't look any better than the one I have, But if the son did all that to it he might have that much into it. Problem is its hard to find someone to pay those prices.
Thanks for posting, keeps us on our toes and in touch with the almost real world.

Chris

What gets me is people selling Kt17's/ or magnum twin, crankcase halves.
these cases are machined as a pair like a connecting rod,
and they are selling just a 1/2 crankcase, then some poor person buys one and it is about as useless as a one left shoe!
Now as far as inflated prices, it's just like collector cars.
Tv shows/Auctions give people the idea their rusted out klunker is a gold mine.
If no one pays inflated prices, soon the market will correct itself.

Damn, I'm gonna have to hire a guard to stand watch on my hoard! :biggrin2:

Seems odd to list that 1200 for $2700 and tell everyone it has a bent driveshaft.

If your gonna fix it before delivery, why bother to mention it?

cuber 01-17-2014 05:08 PM

LOL Well if they actually get that asking price I will sell all of my cubs. :bigthink:
I have 7 or 8 cubs.... LOL if I could get 2grand a piece I could retire.
:LMAO1:
