[QUOTE="Farm Fence Solutions, post: 1475882, member: 26621"] I bought a 5400 Vermeer, with less than 1,000 bales on it, for $4,500 in 2008. Baled somewhere in the neighborhood of 10,000 with it and sold it for $5,000. It was still in great shape, and the only trouble we ever had out of it was starting a bale in the drought of 2012.......The drive roll was so slick that it wouldn't turn the belts. The fix from Vermeer was to wrap the drive roll with duct tape, and it worked just fine. (After the dealer ran up $735 worth of fixes that didn't fix) The old man that sold me that baler made me agree to keeping it washed and waxed, and not letting it ever spend a night outside. [/QUOTE]
