I'm selling my LMS 3990 mill because I bought an RF-30 clone. What is a good selling price in the Los Angeles area for one with these features and accessories:
-In excellent shape
-Kurt-style vise with swivel base
-clamping kit
-DRO's on all 3 axes
-Tachometer
-tools needed for various components
FEATURES
-solid column
-air spring head
-500W brushless spindle drive (no gears, so it's nice and quiet!)
-large table area (18.1" x 4.7")
-R8 taper
New the mill is $1150 + tax (about $1260). The accessories are about $500 with tax new. This would be about $1760 new. I installed the DRO's and didn't put a dollar amount on that.
These mills don't show up often on CL and when they do, they are gone before I can call the seller to ask about the actual selling price. IIRC, they are priced around $900 to $1900, which is a pretty broad range and can include lots of tooling and accessories or none. The price doesn't seem to have anything to do with what it comes with, either; I seem to remember mills with nothing being priced higher than mills that came with all sorts of goodies. I'd like to narrow it down a bit. Thoughts?
