Just curious John. how did your appointment for that $100 plasma cutter turn out?
Turned out to be a Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 38. It is 15 years old but in beautiful shape. Haven't tried it yet but hope to soon as I get my compressor belted up.
Hmmm. There is a big boy 9x16 on that kiji ad

Canwwod from the picture looks like a smoking deal for $50. I dont need one but for $50 I would get it for my dad. Heck for $75 it would still be a nice present for next to nothing. Cannot tell from tiny picture but actual value can be few hundred CAD.
As for 9x16 and 7x12 for 1100 and 850 are priced appropriately depending on condition. I.e. its not a smoking deal unless you can get the price down by significant amount.
I sold a 7x12 to a member in AB and his price with new gear was around half of the price of 7x12 advertised above - granted not same condition but half is a lot. You can regularly see 7x12 go for around $500 on auctions in AB. 850 is a lot of cash for used machine given you can get a brand new one for around 1200 or maybe less on sale - I would not be shocked by black Friday deal of 999+tax for one.
9x16 if in excellent condition for 1100 is far better deal then like new 7x12 for 850. You need to pay over 3000 for a new 9x16 - do a quick comparison and you are paying 33% of new vs. 75% of new price.
