It's sad though, somewhere one more of "us" wore out before the tools did. It certainly doesn't look like the typical " wanted to try metal working but wasn't my cup of tea" type of shop. A lifetime of knowledge and skill has left a void in the community I am sure. :(

I had the same thought, just didn't want to say it. There's always a story behind the ad. Sometimes I go searching for it, sometimes I wish I didn't, like the auction in AB a couple months ago. Pretty tragic set of circumstance behind that one. Just a couple living the dream right up until they weren't.
 
If the price is real, it's a steal! I'd be all over that and then sell the machines. But I doubt that price is really for everything.
 
1234 is online code for contact for pricing. I think this guy was working on rifles? Some of the drills in the pictures are very long? Or maybe some thing else? Sad as others have said machining is a dying hobby.
