I have a 650, which I think is similar. It has over 40,000 bales according to the monitor. it still works good. I recently had to send the monitor and wiring harness off to be rebuilt and since it has had no problem. It makes a really tight bale.

I have one and bale a few hundred bales with it every year. They are a simple, low capacity, economy baler. If it's in good shape it should be reliable and last a long time, just not bale real fast. Makes a 4-500 lb bale. If you look at it check the bearings on the sledge rolls (two dimpled rolls above the pickup.). They take a little doing to replace and if they are bad they may have trashed the shaft attached to the rolls. Mine was not real nice when I bought it and I went all through it. It worked, but I think I found 6 or 8 bad bearings and a bad shaft in it. How much does it cost? I paid $2k and spent maybe another $1500. I see them advertised for $6k sometimes but would never pay that much.
