First, it is not a bridgeport. Second, these are going for scrap price - scrap iron is going for about $165 - $200/ ton - so no reason to offer any more than $400 which is a little less than $6K. I would offer $200 or just see if they will give it to you. Moving it is the main expense. Seeing that it is in Wichita - it is a good bet it only milled aluminum.. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karl Schmidt EMail k...@xtronics.com Transtronics, Inc.
