13" X 34" STANDARD MODERN LATHE--LOADED!!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...y=57 033&rd=1

I would say it is woth $27,344.23. Exactly. And not one penny more.

Sorry to be so sarcastic, but this is really a stupid question. The lathe
is worth exactly what some one (you??) is/are willing to pay for it.

Standard Modern is a VERY good lathe and this one seems to be in pristine
shape, so bid accordingly.

I turned many parts on S+M lathes at school. They indeed are very nice
machines in that they are easy to repair. Their parts and construction are
straight forward and designed with the maintenance man in mind. At college
we had about 20+ that were 25+ years old. Not worked 8hrs/5days a week, but
used (abused) lots by students. Still turning out good parts...

Regards,

Robin

It's not a stupid question. Regardless of how great any machine is, it has
some approximate market value and it would be stupid to grossly overpay.

I have less confidence than you do that Ebay is accurate in setting fair
market prices.

I have seen prices that are unbelievably high and low. The reason I asked
this group, is that
some of you probably have a pretty good understanding of an average fair
market price,
that could be a guide for me.

I am aware of the limitations of my personal knowledge.

My favorite line in the description:

is not included in the sale, nor will she be
listed separately"

Sounds like his wife. I suspect he better NOT list her seperately
if he ever expects to see a dime from the place again!

Her jeans are torn! But she has good taste in
safety shoes, those are red wings. The guy
should turn on some heat in the place so she
could ditch teh fleecy vest, too.

This is a serious lathe. If the condition of the ways is accurately described,
I would say a good price would be anything less that $4000. A used machinery
dealer would probably ask between $5 and $6K. JMHO, John
