I have one that has way over 16,000 on the counter. The crankshaft does wear in sandy hay, then the teflon inserts wear and fall out, then the fingers fall off as Jim said. There's going to be wear on that crankshaft. Mine is worn out, but I keep making rolls with it by putting a SS hose clamp around the fingers to hold'um on. I'll replace that crankshaft and the middle finger this year I guess. ($1050.00 for the crank, $300 for the finger, bracket, and inserts.) The other 2 are pretty new. Is it net and string or just string? If its both it will go for $8000.00 If its just string it should go for around 5k to 6k at just 8000 rolls on the counter. I like the 467 better for an inexpensive used baler. Get the gate lifted up and check for loose fingers and wear on the crank. Use that to negotiate the price down if you want it. These are the prices down here in Texas, probably way off for your location.
