Then there was this one. **LINK**

Quite likely taken off epay to avoid their charges. Or maybe the seller had seen this thread on here. **LINK**

Hi

Tony at lathes.co.uk will advise on pricing if you advertise on his website, he does charge for the advert ( around £40 ish from memory) we found his services very useful when we cleared a deceased friends workshop last year.

Send some clear photo's of the machine , and all the accessories, then give him a ring to discuss the advert, he will identify what is there for you, and word the advert accordingly. I have sold a couple of machines on his site after giving up on the scammers and time wasters on ebay, it proved painless and easier than I expected.

I recently paid £2100 for my super 7B. It is a tad later model with the different belt cover. The earlier ones like yours has the large 7 cast in. The later ones have the speeds plate there. Other than already said that one will have most of the things myford ever put on them. It will be imperial. Mine is 1977 so yours must be earlier than that.

As already suggested copy the Number either at the front of the bedways, left side under the chuck or at the right rear under the tailstock Go onto the myford site & at the bottom of the page on the left they have all the serial numbers & years. Also under the super 7 on the same page you will find concise details of the models.

With all the bits I would think low to mid 2k. Never less than 2 for one with all those features. Also think about breaking the parts down. You could sell the other chucks & gear all separately & probably make quite a bit more than all as a complete package. Don't be letting it go for peanuts. A good one is still worth good money. Some forum members on here cannot understand why they fetch silly money , but they do which you should take advantage of. If any dealer gives you an offer then work out he will be selling it for a grand more.

Don't forget that model has every part still available for it.

Don't forget the fees if selling on Ebay.

Sensible decision. For someone who is not familiar with the equipment, breaking it down into parts and flogging it on eBay can be very difficult, time consuming, and probably not what the family wants to be doing at this point in time. For example, just removing that GripTru chuck to sell it can possibly result in serious damage to the backgears in the headstock if not done correctly. Then the value and saleability of the lathe is reduced considerably, unless you can pull it all apart and fix it, which is an advanced level job.

If you can get a fair price for the lot and Mum is not desperate for the last 50 quid you can squeeze out of it, it's by far the best way to go. Makes it quick and easy, which can be important than at such times.

Ben you have a small fortune in parts there. I would not know where to begin. Profit wise. Everything needs selling separately. But app in your position that may not be possible. It's a shame you did not have an ebay savvy friend that could list them all.

The Rodney is a milling attachment. One on ebay now asking £350. Probably not worth that much but still a rare value item. The rotating table will always fetch £50 + . There is a vertical attachment worth around £50. Then those chucks can be anything from £50ish to a few hundred depending on the make. I can only wish you good luck & do hope you get a good offer for it all. If you divulged what you were offered then someone on here may give better advise than me.

You are starting to get the idea of just how much the value of all those items are worth.

Advertising on this site is free and will eventually find a buyer , just be careful not to disclose too much

detail on location upfront, etc.

Sorry looked at the sticky and they hosted on other sites

thought we had to be in our albums
