I'm trying to find replacement top and bottom guide assemblies for woodman 14" band saw
I have been referred to Carter replacement up graded assemblies but are ridiculously expensive $300.00 plus
can anyone suggest where I might source new or used assemblies.

Not sure that any used band saw guide assembly wold be worth the postage -- there will usually be a reason the assembly has been replaced.
as to the Carter guides being ridiculously expensive
I suppose it depends on why you are replacing your existing guides.
In general, better guides equate to a more accurate and predictable cut -- and potentially avoids the need to purchase a more expensive saw.
