    New one at Harbor freight about $250.00. I'm sure there are better, pricier ones out there.

    Unless, of course, you have use for it. I have found mine to be extremely handy. I'd rather roll stuff around on pallets than carry it when it needs to be moved.

    Just a complete guess, but I would have to assume a used one of those has got to be at least worth a hundred.

    Wouldn't mind finding one myself.

    At auction they generally went for $150 or more. I finally bought one at Menards a couple of years ago for $189 on sale.
    If it wasn't for the $ in $crap, it would just be.....

    Make sure it will hold weight. It may go up and stay up with no load - but sink like a rock (or not even lift) a load.

    I am using it to hold some short and a big AC . I am doing this in a driveway so i probably look wacky , Like a guy with a motorcycle helmet on a lawn runner ,Maybe it's an omen for bigger and better .It is a handy tool even in my metal world , I have poundage's of things so I might find a way to use it . skids are easy to come by .
    -----------------------
    I bet if a bunch of members teamed up we could have a great business and grow , Any takers for upstate NY

    i'll get some skids for the Pallet jack and lets load it up .
