SReynolds Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I picked this 400 up at a garge sale advertised for 50.00 and took it home for 40.00 I wasn't looking for one. A fellow stopped in at the blacksmith shop and told me about it. He mentioned a forge blower for 50.00 and when I asked what model he replied it is a 400, so I figured it must be 150.00 NOT 50.00. It is rusty but fully operational. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

son_of_bluegrass Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 If the $40 is a deal, what would you call the one (in working order) I picked up at an auction for $17? Good find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to say a fair deal as I have one in perfect condition that was free for the asking. Not free in the full sense of the word, but I was given a Buffalo 201 blower and traded the guy that for a Champion 400 that had been recently apart and "restored", I guess you'd say. So, in a way, it really was free as I didn't want that Buffalo blower. More of a Champion guy myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
