Yeah, the 8520 was the limit of what I felt I could move with. Moved three times after I bought it. Take the mill off of the stand, remove the motor, and it weighs about 600#. I can move it up and down a haul ramp on an appliance dolly... barely.
I held off buying a lathe (I wanted something at least 13x40) and a bigger mill until after I moved this final time. Now I am retired from the military (and working a different job), so I don't have to worry about relocating again.
8520's tend to sell for a good amount of money.... but not $3500. That guy is dreaming. I see them selling from $900-1600 tops.
