    Default Fair Price to Sell Old Macson Surface Grinder

    Hi All. Am looking to sell my Macson Surface Grinder - in good working condition - uses 6" x 1/2" wheel. Magnetic vice in good nick. Driven by flat belt using 240volts. On a steel frame - paint work is orginal so reasonably old. Looking for what I might ask for it - was thinking about $500. Thoughts anyone?IMG_5972.jpgIMG_5973.jpgIMG_5975.jpgIMG_5979.jpgIMG_5978.jpg

    The main thing that costs to replace on a SG is the mag chuck. I think I paid around that for mine (about a similar size), so I'd say that's a good price. I'd be tempted to buy it for a friend except for the small matter of a boarder...

    Mate, I rekon I would buy it for 500. No idea when I'll be allowed down to Melbourne next though.

    Hi Barry, for $500 I'd give it a good home and give it the royal reburb treatment (keeping origin paint of course). Will PM. I am in Melbournia.

    Haven't sold it as yet - hadn't advertised it. Am going to do that this week asking for $500 and see how it goes.

    Hi Barry
    I'd be happy to throw my hat into the ring for $500 if the gents before me decline, and you put up on this forum. PM sent.
    Cheers
    Si
