CK 175 Amp Mig machine - what's it worth?

Question

Hello all -We're having a garage sale Saturday and I'm going to put our CK Systematics mig machine up for sale.(This is the machine we replaced with a Miller 250 a while ago and it's just in the way. although it's a sweet running machine.)It's rated at 175 amps, power is 220 single phase and comes with a 20 lb. CO2 cylinder and regulator.My question is, what's a fair price? Haven't seen these on the market in a while so I'm wondering if it's an orphan.Thanks in advanceCarlaemail reply address is spamtrapped...

Practically nobody uses C02 anymore so I suggest you sell those separately to a beer/wine type.GWECarla F

About $500 - $600.Systematics and CK split up years ago.Systematics is in Pennsylvania and still makes MIG machines and spoolguns, but not under their own name.They make a lot of MIG machines for Snap-On, and spoolguns for Lincoln.

Ah...say what? Perhaps not used in YOUR neck of the woods, but in mine...at least half the Miggers use CO2, according to personal knowledge and the guy at PraxAir

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire. Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us) off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the s*it out of you for torturing the cat." Gunner
