    Did u end up finding out how long the motor had been sitting? i take it ur the same guy i replyed to the other day?

    2.5k is ok for a man half cut , how bout u offer him a couple of hundred less?
    worst is he can say is no .
    I wouldn't worry about the klm too much ,they sound like REAL klms to me .

    Regards

    Doesn't sound too bad.

    12 months ago, $3000 or so seemed to be the going rate.

    However, I then found the $3000 half cut I was considering was plus GST and plus delivery, which brought it up to $3700 all up. That didn't look like such a good deal to me.
