Has anyone seen or used a multi head like this?

Looks mighty useful if it works well. Is this uncommon? Valuable?

Never seen that.
Can you tell if it's original/built-in, or an aftermarket attachment?

It resembles one of those adjustable heads to access screw at funny angles, but with many heads....

Thanks for posting it!

I found one on eBay. It's called the Quadrill so it's aftermarket. Pretty cool but I assume it would add to the slop in the quill and not as precise as chucking directly. Hopefully someone will chime in.

Like a turret lathe, on a drill press. Who'da thunk it?
 
I've never seen one but have seen the time when I could have used something like that to drill, counterbore, and tap multiple holes. What is the 4th head hidden behind the plastic guard?
 
you mean like this???

How much is it worth??? Should I buy the drill press? Asking $400.

i'd be the guy that'd come in around 300-350 for the unit ;),
just because you know that there is one or more issues with the machine in general.
if it sounds and runs really good 350, if not 300
