    If it was running and usable, probably a great deal. But how many spindle hours, condition of ways. Spindles, bearings, ball screws get pretty expensive. I looked at one similar here that went for about $10,000 usd. It was running condition, but didn't look like it was taken care of very well.

    After 10,000 hours ( 5 years , 1 shift ) you start to need maintenance..$$$
    For that price, I would guess it had 50,000 hours +
