Sounds like a good deal at the right price. Just curious I would guess the tractor has an hour meter, if so what does it read?

I'm not sure what the hrs were to be honest.
Soooo... I don't think I'm going to get it. I haven't heard back from the guy at all. I called last night and left a voicemail asking what's going on with it. No call back so far.
Super sucky :(

That would really tick me off BIG TIME if someone agreed to sell me something at an agreed on price and then didn't follow through. Even if it was just a verbal agreement the seller is morally obligated to follow through. :mad:

Yeah... My ass is definitely chapped a little bit about it, but oh well. I can spend the 500$ on some new tires for my car.
Time to scrub up the L2000 lol

Hey! So great news! Got a hold of the guy selling the mower and I'm gonna buy it tomorrow! Woohoo!

So now the question is, what would a 08 craftsman l2000 be worth? Lol

I will give you $500 if it is running good and you deliver it to me for that price lol. Heck don't sell it start building a collection.

Haha... I think my soon to be wife would kill me if I started collecting mowers.

So now the mower is paid and I'm waiting for delivery. Should be here any time now :)

Double post again lol... I'm just excited :)

So now that I have it and put it through some week high grass I must say I love it. No motor bog downs like with the old one and starts like a champ.
My only 2 complaints are that the steering is a little tough and I can't instantly go in reverse like with the old one. I have to shift into R first.
It had 90hrs on the clock when I got it. Put just under an hr onto it when ran it through its paces.

Other than that I love it! 500$ well spent.

JD... depending on where you are, that's not a bad deal. I would take that. Mechanically its sound. There are a couple of rust spots (nickle sized) on the deck and the mower engage lever has some light surface rust on it. Other than that its a beaute.
