I looked thru kijiji and found this ad, he has a whole set for the QCTP including knurler, machine looks clean, has all the steadys with virtually no wear apparent, my 7x12 did not come with a 4 jaw or follow rest or a pair of centers to center the tailstock, if it is dialed in as claimed and really ready to go you save a lot of monkey time. Price is high though, his view is like new, better than out of the box, super pricey tool holders added (i counted 8 including boaring bar, knurler and parting) he priced high to get beaten down to fair, not fair to get beaten down to total loss. ask questions like what he used it for, why selling, ask about other tooling, ask about a lower price, bacically try to figure the guy for a know nothing or knowledgable individual, the later is the seller you want to buy from. 1200 i think is good but i just sold my 7x12 to someone whos son has the same machine and wanted the same, (mine set up diffrently) here in calgary for list price, accesories included. Whats a QCTP of this calaber worth? $1000 on its own all tallied? You stand a better chance talking him down in price (situation, budget, small talk) than low balling his price off the hop.
