Just missed out on a Bridgeport because I'm too cheap.
Anyway, a gov auction ended today with 5 Bridgeport mills all series I, I believe, and a couple had addition E series shapers on their backs. Pictue is the one I bid on. The site had poor pictures and descriptions.
$2247.00, 2215.00, 2655.00, 2500.00 and $2702.00 respectively. Keep in mind, these prices plus 12.5% sellers fee and WI sales tax. My max was $2500.00, so doing the math backwards, my max bid was for #2 at $2111.00 which worked out to be $2490 something. The auction has a 2 minute rule, but, I work nights and was sleeping when it played out, hence my max bid.
Also, just so you can keep track, a 1972 South Bend Fourteen went for $2800.00 + all the fees, etc.
These were at a technical school, so not sure if that is good or bad.
FWIW,
