PM1340GT Value??

nighthawk, the 1340 is much better than my 1228, I am not disappointed at all. I'm getting the hang of the feed rates on the gear box, and learning new muscle memory things for the controls. If it checks out being in good shape you may never out grow the 1340.
 
Sell it to a forum member, I'm sure you'll get more than enough interest to justify upgrading to a Gold membership so you can list it here.
 
Keep in mind that eBay will cost you a minimum of 10% as a sellers fee. Plus the hassle of shipping it.
 
I'm right up the road from you in FW. We drive all the time to the Burelson HEB. Since you are looking for a CNC lathe....would you ever consider converting your lathe to CNC?

The OP is in Sioux Falls, SD according to his profile.
 
If I wasn’t in queue with PM with an August delivery, I’d be all over it at $6500.

Not sure I understand this. You haven't taken delivery and you CAN change your mind, right? Given the scarcity of lathes nowadays, PM will have no trouble selling the one you reserved.

I have tried the Facebook marketplace several times as buyer and seller, and I'm totally turned off by the lack of a good messaging system to allert both ends about questions and how to pay/settle the deal - it's a joke IMO. Craigs List is a lot better if you demand all cash at time of pickup, require a Venmo non-refundable $100 deposit to hold for 24 hours, and specify there is no post-sale support.

There are two methods of notifications available. If you have a smart phone you can allow notifications from FB when someone replies. Better yet is Facebook Messenger. 99% of the people that I have dealt with use this method. It is no different than texting except it is using Messenger as the platform. The benefit of Facebook is most people utilize their real name for their profile, so you know right away who you are dealing with. I recently sold a large blanchard ground shop table. I posted it on CL and FB. Within an hour the scammers on CL were pounding on my phones door, even though I entered my phone number as an alphanumeric. I took the CL ad down and sold it through FB. I have recently gotten text messages with a link to a porn site along with the standard "send you a code". I guarantee that this BS came from CL.
