As in the title, is there a certain time in the year when there are more deals on used cnc machinery? I've been looking for a cnc lathe for a while without any luck.

I don't know about any particular time of year but there are times like 5-7 years ago when the economy was in the toilet that there were screaming deals on cnc's.
About all you can do is wait for the economy to bomb again or pay the going rate.

Yup.....wait for the economy to tank.............lotsa deals.

I don't think there is a best time of the year, but end of year seems to be the worst. Everyone is scrambling for that last minute purchase to keep the taxman at bay.

I don't think we'll need to wait too long
 
If you have a particular company in mind, find out when their fiscal year ends, and then see what bargains they have in stock.

Hint, Brother's fiscal year ends in March.
