I've found a couple of items around the house that I am selling on eBay. One sale yesterday brought me almost $500 and another should bring about $200 or better. So, I am going to get serious about a splitter, but not necessarily in a rush.
A Huskee 22 is a major contender, especially if they go back on sale for $1000. Another $100 coupon might clinch the deal!
As posted earlier, I've been looking at a 27 ton Cub Cadet but have pretty much decided against it unless the Pawn shop owner caves in on my $800 drive out offer. It's virtually brand new and would be a great deal at that price. Might just turn around and sell it for a profit.
Today I was looking on- line at Iron and Oak Splitters. Right now they are offering free shipping, and of course, no sales tax.
So, what are your thoughts of a 16 ton Iron and Oak vs the Huskee 22? At the non-sale price of about $1280 with sales tax, the Huskee will run about $50 more than the 16 ton I & 0 vertical/Horizontal with 5.0 Honda, or even money with the I & O
16 ton Horizontal only with a 5.5 Honda.
The Iron and Oaks 16 ton are running $150 to $200 off regular price.
The I & O 15 ton is on sale for $999, which is $400 off, and again, no shipping charge or taxes. Which is very attractive except that it is a horizontal split only.
I don’t know much about Iron and Oak, though I get the idea they are fairly upscale and well made in the USA
So...Huskee 22 vs a 15 or 16 ton Iron and Oak all in the same ball park, moneywise?
Thoughts, please.
Still watching Craigslist, also, for a good use one.
