Is there a way to somehow get a fair market price on used mowers such
as the nadaguides or Kelly Blue Book equivilent ? Want to buy a used
Scag or Exmark commercial mower but have no idea what a fair price is
on these or other simular equipment. Any advise ??

Look it up on the internet, check ebay, ask more than one dealer. You can
usually find commercial type mowers on government surplus auction sites.

I don't have the links anymore. There are two sites. One is for auctions
at specific times. The other always has stuff on it, just less stuff.
Search for surplus auctions and see...

You should see the stuff they sell overseas!!! It goes for next to nothing
over there. I assume because no one can afford the equipment. It seems
that local government agencies buy most of it, but darn...sure wish I had a
boat or something to go get it!
