ShirleyT Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 Hello, everyone. I have an opportunity to purchase a Nippy skiving machine, 15 -20 years old but not used in the last six and low volume before that. The current owner once made handbags for a living but suddenly, and tragically, stopped when her son died. She would now like to sell her machines and remaining inventory. I have a sense that her idea of what they are worth is a bit high. I have no idea of value though it appears to be in good shape. Do any of y'all have any idea? Thanks. Best, Shirley Quote
Moderator bruce johnson Posted October 21, 2009 Moderator Report Posted October 21, 2009 Shirley, The only used sale reference I can find for a Nippy is from Big Horn saddlery's auction. The Nippy sold for $325 and the SAS sold for $700 to give a relative value comparison. Quote
