12/2003 Lt40 with 71.6hours value?
« on: June 09, 2020, 11:37:41 PM »
Hi, i was wondering if anyone could give me a range for what this sawmill is worth. Thanks
I am selling a 12/2003 Wood Mizer Lt 40 sawmill with 71.6 hours on it.

My father purchased it new from Wood Mizer; it is in great condition due to being stored inside and since it has never traveled on the road (aside from bringing it to the farm).
Includes
Original User manual
An unopened box of 10 blades
A box of 5 new blades
An unboxed, but new set of 10 blades
At least 4 used blades
Sawmill cover
Electric blade guide
Electric debarker
Log Deck package
Powered saw head up/down & forward/reverse
The engine is a Kohler Command 25

Thanks

I would guess you should get 75% of new, based on the fact is it an essentially new machine. Should be an easy sale.

Amazing.  Practically new and it's 17 years old.  joasis sounds like he's hitting the head of the nail and driving it home as far as price.

Call forum sponsor Wood-Mizer.  The link is posted on the main page.
They maintain the "Orange book" and will
give you a value. 
You can leverage that during a negotiation/sale.

I agree with Joasis and DGDrls.   If you call Woodmizer ask them what it would cost to upgrade to the hydraulic package, which may be of interest to anyone thinking about buying it.

 Being as mills have gone up so much 75%  of new should be more that he paid for it.  Steve
