A good running 3000 series should bring $2K to $3k but they just don't. The front ports should be worth a couple hundred and the deck the same. If it is you selling the machine I would get it running and sell it. Why did someone park a $7000 machine outside if nothing was wrong with it is what I would ask myself if I was buying it. How does it compare to your 1712? If your using this as a mower, they are a lot better then the 82 series for mowing.

It's not mine. The mower is one of many on a big estate. This one didn't get used as much as the zero turns or the large front deck mowers. It has been stored inside its hole life. They are selling everything off the property soon so I thought I would see how much its worth, if its a really good mower.
Thanks

My policy is "If it don't run I do". Sounds simple but most of these old garden tractors CC or JD lose so much value with a bad engine that they usually become parts tractors. If you are a good wrench then a low offer may be what you need to do. But for me I won't even consider one that I cannot drive and operate.

I am a mechanic and work for the guy from time to time. I started the mower last year and moved it to its current location. It ran then but need the carb cleaned from sitting. I don't want to low ball him, I'm not that kind of guy.
The mower does need work tho, so that's the spot i am in. I would offer 500 but if they sell for 2000 I don,t want to insult the guy. Thanks for all the input

When something is for sale there is no such thing as a "Too low" of an offer. Maybe that's all they can afford or think the item is worth. Plus there is always the chance that you are getting an angry wife who is selling her ex's tools at giveaway prices. Everytime I put a JD on CL I get several "Would you take XXX offers?" and I always reply with a simple NO. No insults or belittling of their offer because I believe that most of them are dreamers and do not mean to insult me.

JR, I agree with Rudy and Sam. Do a search on that model number and you will probably see them going for over $2k at the dealers. If your sure that nothing is wrong maybe start out at $1500, all they can say is no. That machine should bring $2k +/- $500 depending on condition.
People in my area don't know the difference from a good garden tractor like what your looking at to some belt drive pos you can buy at Home Depot. They could care less about it being able to pull a cat 0 plow, put a snow blower on it or put one of those sweet hydro tillers on the back.

I figured 1000 to 2000 from what found. I would have to get the mower running for him if he sold it any way. I would love to bring it home for 500 but I think 1000 is probably the place to start.
This mower is missing the third hydro handle, what does this limit? Also Its going to be a while till I get back over to see this mower, do you know how wide the 60" deck is? I need to know if it will fit in the spot I'm thinking of. Thanks

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
