    Default Selling advice

    Not a good time to be selling used woodworking machinery and especially to a dealer.
    As advised above have a look at Buy Swap and Sell and also go to the sponsor's site www.machines4u.com.au. You can list items there for $39 each and take the middle man out. There is also the ebay option, but make sure you set your reserve at a reasonable price so you don't give them away.

    If you want to know the low end price you will get in selling them to a dealer contact someone like AClass Machinery at Mulgrave(near Windsor) and talk to Stuart. He buys and sells used machinery, but have a tissue handy because the values won't be high in this current market.

    There are other dealers listed in the Sydney Yellow Pages under Woodworking Machinery. Also The Trading Post is another option, if you want to manage the sale yourself.
    Best of luck with your sales.

    Thumbs up thanks for the heads up

    yes it is a bad time to sell...but it was also a bad time to go out of buisness. i'm lucky that i got the gear for a good price in the first place ...so my expectations aren't to high. its just a shame seeing all these toys in my garrage and not having 3 phase as an option to put on. my street is all underground power about 35 years ago. and the quote was over $20,000 to put it on. so it's time to get rid of it and play with other toys instead.

    It can be relativly easy to swap the three phase motors to a single phase motor, this maybe an option to keep the tools check ebay for motor prices
    Cheers,
