Well, I think you got ripped on the tires, but,,,, I supose you might find some use for the other 'junk' that came with them.

I had a guy call me with a 7119 he was selling. Immaculate condition,etc,etc,but it had a blown Kohler. He was trying to get 6 bills for it.Good luck,I thought,as I told him I wasn't interested at that price.....

There's a little more to the story. This tractor has been sitting behind my Simplicity dealer's shop for most of a year with the blown engine. I have coveted the ag tires and weights for the whole time and have inquired regularly about it. The dealer said the owner wasn't interested in selling. I stopped in this evening after work to tell the dealer about my new wireless ISP service because he is also interested. Turns out that another customer is looking for the deck from this tractor and the owner wants $500 for the whole shebang including a snow blade before he goes to Florida next week. The way I calculate 2 new ag tires at Tractor Supply would run better than $120 so I get everything else for $30.
