Well I found a 2002 Haas TM1 that I am thinking about buying. It has 4400 spindle hours on it. I am not sure about the power on or servo hours. Just curious what would be considered high, low, or average hours for a machine of this age? I thought 4400 hours seemed high because most of the other machines I looked at had well under 2000.

Also how much should hours affect the value? They are asking $21500 which I thought was a little high. Would this machine need a lot more work to keep up and running compared to a lower hour machine?
 
4000 Spindle hours is nothing. I have 1045 Spindle hours on my 2010 VM2 and I just got it in December. My 2004 Super Mini MIll has over 8000 spindle hours, and it is runnning between 13k-15k rpm on every thing but drills and taps. If it is in good shape and will meet your needs (does it have all the options you want etc). That seems to be a middle ground of where they are priced. You can also always make an offer.
