Yes- even a nice 12 is not worth anywhere near that.

I dropped him an email

"I repair/service/buy and trade machine tools. I live in Taft, but
most of my customers are in LA or Orange county.

Id be really..really surprised if you got more than $500 for that Van
Norman. Its a very nice mill..but its from the late 1930s-1940s. The
later Van Normans with the tilting heads dont sell for $1400..sadly.

Best of luck.

If you want me to find you a buyer..for 10%...give me a price it can
be sold for.
