7" short bank filter press

[Brad]

Does anyone know how much a used 7" short bank should cost?
I have a guy who wants to sell me one. It's 5yrs old and looks like new?

I paid $975 for one that sounds about the same age and condition a couple of years ago. All I know is used ones in good condition go fast!

If the things been greased every year and they didnt pump rocks thru it they dont have alot that goes wrong. If your happy buy it

Just sold a Wes Fab short bank three yrs old for $850. It was like new too.

I have a WES-FAB short 7 I wouldn't take $850 for! beside you can't replace it for $850!!

I paid 900 for mine but it also came with a 10 gallon filter tank with spout and thermometer mounted on it, a stainless cart, box of filters and bag of DE and a flat stainless pan to go under it! I made out fairly well.

Paid $550 for my used d&g maybe 5-6 years ago. had to make my own stand for it but it did have kind of it's own frame. then after filtering roughly 1000-1200 gallons of syrup i had to put a new pump on it at the end of last season. so I have about $900 into mine with the unit, homemade stand, and a new pump.

It's called depreciation. I realize I can't replace me press for $850. There are not very many things in this world that sell for more "used" than what they cost "new".

jdj; If you sold it for more than you paid for it Good Job! and I have no idea what a new one cost? But my guess it is more than $850..some one got a deal!

I was looking around. they run 1375$ new. with most things used is about half
of the new price, but not with maple equip. Bascom has one listed for 950$.
I think I'll offer him 800 & see what he says. Thanks for the info ..
