: : Not vintage, but you guys seem pretty sharp to me so see if anyone can help with this one! I've got a chance to buy a 18HP B&S commercial, 1993 yr, Craftsman 44 in. HD Garden Tractor, garage kept, excellent cond. Widow wants to sell, doesn't know what to price for and I don't know and don't want to get either of us hurt. Anyone have a ballpark figure? Thanks from KY, USA.

: : I have had a Craftsman and that will also be the last. Have found that they, and this piece of information comes from a man that was in the business of professional repair for 50+ years, Sears manufactures a lot of there stuff in incremental sizes, ie. non-standard and the majority of spares have to be ordered directly from them, hence espensive to repair. My old friend Earl would ask not to work on them unless a customer really pressed him. I have a cousin who has a J.D.400.Good machine,but when you need parts,J.D. is only place you'll find them and they are$$$$$$$$$$
