what a good question
I also wandered if people bought them to flip them. I look on ebay and ic SO many cubs 149's in particular just sold for parts. I starterd collecting or shoud i say hoarding them. I started because my dad bought a 149 new in 73 i think and i used it to plow snow when i was young. And now my dad is real ill but everytime i bring a new 149 or 169 it peps him up. its kinda sad that people just get them and resell usally trying to rip off people. I have picked up over the past yr 3 149', 3 169's, a 59m chipper shreder, 3 a2 tillers 1 a1 tiller. When i see something on craigslist i tell temm the truth about how much they are worth. I seen a very nice #1 trailer that an old gentle man had and he only wanted 100.00 for it . i was the 2nd caller and told him what it was worth. I saw a post on here that a guy picked it up for 100. if it was me i would have paid what it was worth... And have paid more. just last week i got a a 169 for 300 dollars and told him i would give him 500 just on principle...
