2500 bales is nothing, that baler is still like new, we have a 567 and love it. Bought it new, We are getting quite a few bales on it and may trade for a 568/9 just to update. But, its been very trouble free, replaced the belts and general maintenance is all its required. Its a simple baler to run to in my opinion, even my 14 year old daughter runs ours. I think you may of found a good deal. We like the 5 foot bales because of our steep hills, the 4 footers are more likely to roll over...end for end, yeah, thats how steep some of our ground is :shock: Overall, I think you'll like that baler, what tractor are you going to be pulling it with?
