It actually is still cheaper than I thought it would sell for.

You do know that they normally sell used for $7-11k...right?

They are rather popular in machine shops and have a good reputation

Gunner, what do you think is a fair price for a GT-75 in a good
condition? There is one that may come up locally. I would not pay a
fair price, of course, but it helps to know what it is. By fair, I
mean a price at which it is easy to sell on ebay.

Ive seen them go as low as $6k at auctions. It geatly depends on what
condition the slides and ways are in. But Ive never seen a good
condition GT-75 go below $6k on the open market.

Now if it has a C-axis...not a 5hp drive motor, but an actual servo
controlling the spindle..add a minumum of $1-2k

Some of the very early ones, with an Indramat drive..Id recommend taking
OFF $2k. Shrug

If you can get me the serial number off the back of the computer..I can
get the date it was shipped from the factory.

If you check Ebay..you will note that they go from about $7k-21k

The one for $7k...is probably pretty tired. The average is $13k

It is called Omniturn Series III Model GT-75 CNC Lathe. All I know as
of now.


Its post 2000. Get me a serial number off the back of the control and
Ill get the year it was made.


S/N 1999? Makes sense?


No G34 or anything at the end of the numbers?

1999 is about the beginning of 2001. Ill call the factory in the
morning and get a shipping date
