Title: Offered an Everest. How much?
Post by: david_claxton on August 05, 2010, 06:15:39 pm

Looking for some expert input.

I've been offered a Prochem Everest HP with waste tank, one water tank, three lengths of solution and vacuum and a wand. Thing is, the price is 10k and I think it's too much. Its got 4.5k hours and is 3 years old. Does anyone have an idea what this should be worth?

Many thanks,

Dave

how much was it when new?

I think a price of £6k would be more appropriate

I've know the guy since he got it. He's kind of a competitor friend and has looked after it well. So do you recon 6k including accessories?

Thanks

700 hours or so per year is a busy CCs average on a TM. Double that is more than busy, its over flat out!
