Very nice. I bought a Fadal VMS 4020 recently, with a shipload of
toolholders, Lista cabinet, Renishaw probe, 4th axis option, for
$2,100 plus BP. I will sell it of course.

What sort of buyer's premium do they (generally) claim on most auctions?
I've only bought at auction twice, and don't remember what the BP was.

Probably too big to fit in my shop, but a nice looking machine.
VERY good price!
