It will be interesting to see what this goes for considering what they wanted for the ebay one earlier this year.

Agree, but still has to be worth (cost) a fair chunk of change.
I used one, in the last shop I worked in, in Cold Lake, that I have pretty good suspicions rode across the sea in the same sea can as this one, and am pretty well aware of what they cost new.

At retail, new, those lathes cost more than the Average House in Switzerland at that time! Classic example of why buying a used machine that was built UP to a "Standard", is a better deal than buying a new machine that was built down to a "Cost", IMO.

I know what the last one that sold on CADC brought in too, as I was the second or more places bidder (all sealed bids then, but I was not far behind what the winner paid!).

Still trying to figure out what I can justify to myself spending (I can afford far more!) to get my 'essentially, "Dream Machine".

I have a Colchester 2500 Master that came with a LOT of extra chucks, that I can raid to tool this unit up with.
 
Sold for CAD 14300 + HST.
Yeah, too rich for my blood this time around! Was on the road all day, but watched this one close on my phone,

Really hoping the lathe went to someone that will appreciate owning a Ferrari, rather than someone who just wants to sell Ferrari parts!

A further kick in to my own behind, that I should have bid higher on the better tooled up one!
