What Did You Buy Today?

[finsruskw]

I'm in the market for one as well.
Been looking at a Quincy 80 gal 5HP on an auction near me.
May bid on it but there is not much info and the auction house will not answer my requests for info.

Found out today compressor is in a basement in a house and there is no one available to unlock the house so I can look at it.

But, the good news, no charge for loading it as long as I do it myself??
Yeah, right.
I'm gonna want to fight a darned 600+ lb. A/C up out of a basement and get it into my pickup when there is 18" of snow on the ground and below zero temps by myself.
So much for bidding on that item!!

Doesn't matter why he priced it there, I'll take it all day long for that....

Well look at the bright side, you won't be cold by the time you get that compressor out of the basement and the snow should help you slide it to the pickup once you get it out of the house.

Sometimes these auction folks don't use their heads....sheesh.

All you have to do is drive to Michigan, I've got a nice Quincy QR-25 (pressure lubricated version) 80 gallon I'm going to sell soon for a reasonable price. It's only 4-500 miles

 

[finsruskw]

If those miles were the round trip miles I'd be warming the truck up as I type

Well, I could leave now and get there about the time you plan to put it up for sale. No doubt it will go for much less than I would have to pay for one out here in my neck of the woods.

Watching a Kobalt and a Quincy on an auction near me. Still have 5 days to go and most of the bidding will be in the final hours of the auction. I like the Quincy QT5 but it is 5hp 3ph and 460V. The Kobalt AGM25 is 3.7hp 1ph and 230v. I would venture that both will go for almost retail.
