I have one that is on lease purchase with a guaranteed buy back from the dealer. It is a good machine. The dealer doesn't want to give me the $158,000 they initially offered me when the machine was new. What is it worth in today's market?
It is 5 years old and has less than 5000 hours........
I haven't seen a guaranteed buy back program where the numbers weren't guaranteed. The only way they get out of the numbers is if the owners run over the hours and go past the turn in time. As far as the value of the machine goes, you can check that out on Machinery Trader and negotiate from there. Good Luck!
Also to keep yourself realistic Check Ritchie Bro and Iroon Planet auctions for some low numbers to expect.
They company agreed to give us the guaranteed buy back amount, so all is well.
