messer9696 372 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I've read quite a few post here about the value of different styles of IH weights. What do the "modern" 100# IH suitcase weights sell for in different areas? I have 8 of them and not sure if it's worth trying to get rid of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Craig61019 291 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 In northern Illinois they are selling for $100 to $125 each as they don’t seem to be for sale very long? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pt756 111 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 about as bad as i see on wis CL one of those big anvils for 875 dollars, are they selling for that much, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WESnIL 205 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 North of one dollar per pound, more for the 75 pounders, with a slight discount for generic vs. IH imprinted weights. Or conversely in times of heavier demand a dollar a pound for the generic with a premium for the IH imprint ones. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mmi 437 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 $1.60 - 2.25 lb here and the anvils(had to hide them) were $3 lb and going to mexico or oversee for $5+ , + costs 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
messer9696 372 Posted February 27 Author Share Posted February 27 Thank you, that's better than I thought. I figured only the rear wheel weights for rare models would have much value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hobbyfarm 485 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I can't imagine finding them for less then $125 in PA. The 75lb ones would be the same $125 if not more. Dealer has new generic ones for $100 each last I had seen. If a puller wanted weights that may be the way to go. A purist not so much. I would buy any ih stamped weights I see at less then $125. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Most people do not actually use them though for their designed purpose. A lot of the recent anvil prices have come due to Forged in Fire and things like that. Around here weight prices are in the $1/lb range. 75lb are more like $100/weight. Sometimes a little more and sometimes a little less. That is IH stamped. Generic ones are about 15-20% less. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sledgehammer 8,638 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Just now, hobbyfarm said: I don't know that the anvils stop here at $3 a pound. I have seen them at auctions bring a grand on up. They don’t stop here at that necessarily. I always figure the weight of the anvil and then the price per lb I would be willing to give for that anvil. Different conditions, brands, sizes are worth different amounts to me personally. I have seen some stupid money paid for them also. I hope to find on in the 300lb + range some day.

Cummings1486 271 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I bought 12 on a local sale here a few weeks back for 100 a weight for stamped ones. Seems to be the going rate. 75 pounders closer 125 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nepoweshiekfarmalls 2,349 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 At work, marked or not, 100# are $75., 75# are $100. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
N S 121 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I can say I would like some and can see the value of them in certain situations as I got some steep ground to cover. But having said that I'm a bit inclined to, @ $1.60-$2.00 a pound, when I need em I'll just fill a steel basket up front with rocks. I got way more rocks than money......Ain't that the way it always goes? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

m.c.farmerboy 720 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 pulling guys have drove the price, I guess john deere weights don't pull as good. $1.50 -$ 2.50 around here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bitty 6,072 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 This talk makes me wonder about hauling new aftermarket weights straight to the consignment sale. Probably make a good dime doing it 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jass1660 2,271 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Y’all talk about how they bring big money. In the last 5 years I’ve had sets on auctions and they’ve averaged $75/apiece. I’ll leave them sit in the shed from now on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So you're saying that the auctions where I stood there and watch batches of weights bring $160, $180, and $230 PER WEIGHT were a lie? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
