Parent - - By Billyjoe (***) Date 09-04-2008 03:32

Parent - - By shorthood2006 (****) Date 09-08-2008 01:20
well, showme welder, i sold 47 sa 200's last year alone. i will be willing to bet that you dont even get the 2 grand bid to you! let alone 3800.
Parent - - By showmewelder (*) Date 09-10-2008 01:25
well mr. short hood,,hears a way to show what u know,,which aint alot,,take a look on ebay,,,type in lincoln welders,,,i believe its on page 2,,there is a sae 300,,gas,,big ass machine,,huge,,nothing done at all to it,,original,,and the current bid is 2500,,sooo hmmmm in the part of the country where im from,,and most all the places ive worked,,if a big ass 300 gas is bringin at least 2500( it still has 2 days on the auction) than id say a sweetly restored classic 1947 shorthood,,would damn sure b worth more than your 2000,,like u said its just opinion,,but i think ur uneducated guess has about run its course here,,,thanks for lookin now pass on bye,,,(bye bye)
Parent - - By shorthood2006 (****) Date 09-10-2008 01:44
showmewelder, 
an sae 300  and a sa 200 shorthood .....that is like comparing  apples and oranges.  if ebay is the place to sell sa 200's, then try selling your shorthood there. i am willing to bet that it doesnt even bring $2000. i bought 16 machines off of ebay last year. 3 of them were in northwest missouri and i gave less than $1000 for each and in better condition.
i will gladly pay your advertizing on ebay....lets see what it brings. No need to get your feathers ruffled, I have traded a few of these old machine, my friend.
Parent - By showmewelder (*) Date 09-10-2008 02:09
well i tell u what,,i know that i am and im sure alot of the real rig hands on this site r sick of hearin all this s**t,,so i tell u what i dont give a good g*dd**n what u think or what uve done,,this is my machine,,not urs,,i know what i want for it and if it dont sell than it aint no skin off by n*ts,,so i tried to give u the hint on the end of the last reply,,,ur opinion has been heard and u aint gettin this machine for what u think it worth,,and i think u need to spread ALL  ur wisdom somewherelse,,the writer of this post is bore with u now,,as i put in the last post,,,(here ill capitalize it so u can see it) BYE BYE,,,
Parent - By Billyjoe (***) Date 09-10-2008 16:37
the saler asking $2500.00
Parent - - By shorthood2006 (****) Date 09-07-2008 19:11
in my part of the woods, a shorthood with no work done to the armiture and no updates(idle control,alternator update, wired for remote, oilfilter swap,) is only worth around 2000.
i got 8 grand out of a machine that had a new engine, and all the updates, new sheetmetal, starter,radiator, paint,idle control, remote,. but for a stock welder....i feel 2000-2500 would be fair market value.

     Darrin, this is what it boils down to:

     You don't NEED this guy's welder, You only want to buy it if You can get it cheap enough to flip it for profit.

     He doesn't need to sell the machine, but He will if somebody comes up with enough money.

     You want to buy it wholesale, He wants to sell it retail.
Parent - - By showmewelder (*) Date 09-11-2008 02:15
hey dude, well maybe u finally got through to him,,cause he deleted all his messages,,but he did send me a personal message,,and if anyonelse on this site is from missouri i thought id let u know,,that in that personal message ole Mr shorthood thinks that all of us from missouri r inbread,,i truely hope to never hear another thing from that fella,,cause big stories like his are like big feed lots in kansas,,,they smell like sh*t,,lol
Parent - By sbcmweb (****) Date 09-11-2008 02:29
You ask for what you feel it's worth.

What is something worth? Whatever someone is willing to pay.

You gotta get what you gotta get & that's all. If someone thinks it's crazy, they don't have to buy it.

Not referring to Darin, but sometimes, some people think they need to tell someone else how much they think they are right. Had that happen to me today. Yep. Fine. Nice. I still want what I want. If you don't like it.......

I do buy & sell for a living & I sure a heck ain't getting rich. Like I said, you gotta get what you gotta get. We all gotta eat. Whether I agree it's worth what you want or not, I'll be the last guy to tell you how wrong I think you are.

Good luck! S.W.

I should probably stay out of this but i cant i had a 53 shorty that needed paint in a bad way only thing left with paint on it was the grille i got it upgraded to pc board and that was it. it already had the oil filter upgrade on it and i sold it for 3,000.00 you might have to sit on it a while but it will sell and you might have to come down some to move it but i was asking 3500 and sold it for 3,000 like it sat i sat on this machine for 2 years but it did sell
