Looking at haying about 20 acres. Was set on getting an NH 273 or similar, but a family friend offered this JD rake and baler to us for $400 each or $700 together.
They have been sitting in the barn unused for 10+ yrs. He said last time he used it, it baled pretty well but misses a knot every 20 bales and you have to pull the bale out to get it going again. He doesn't think the rake had any issues. He said he used to bale 1000 bales a year with them.
He was pretty sure the baler is a 24T, I was talking to him on the phone while his wife showed them to us. I couldn't find the model number on it, but I am not sure I looked very well at the back which is where it appears to be on these. I could not read the serial/model number on the rake, found them but they are illegible now.
Should I get these? Otherwise I also looked at a 273 NH that appears to be in working order, and baled with last year with minimal rust. Dealer is asking $2500.

Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
