Take a look at my 25 yo Craftsman

Just pick this up today off FB. Original owner.
5hp, 22", electric start..






As you can see it was $659 back in 1996. Very nice condition. Needs a starter rope and handle and few adjustments but that's about it. Paid $75 for it. Might keep it for myself as I don't have any on hand right now and they're tough to find decent ones anymore.

Yea we did !. Snowblowers were hot last winter. Used prices pretty much doubled and prices are still showing it this summer.
BUT as soon as it doesn't snow as much or not at all people start almost giving them away again.

Stopped by my Outdoor Power place a couple days ago. They had the warehouse doors open and all you could see was box after box of snowblowers. They have moved most of their big mowers to another warehouse for winter storage. Tillers and walk behind mowers will be next. Then the showroom will be full of snowblowers.
