I have one just like that gathering dust in my basement; I'd be willing to part with mine for considerably less than $800!!

I sent a polite note to the guy saying that I help many people find lathes to buy and these usually sell for around $150 or less. Wished him luck.

I think that was roughly what I paid for mine, brand new...but it was in Canadian dollars!

Hey, you guys paid way too much. Here is my first lathe bought from an ad in Popular Mechanics Magazine. The lathe was about $12 and the optional motor about $20. Added a quarter sheet of plywood and a set of Craftsman turning tools and I was in business.

I probably should have mentioned that this was about 50 years ago. :\

Don't know what it's worth. I gave mine away. I even threw in some tools.
