Ditchwitch makes that same type of loader. They are a pain in the ass to work on. I was happy when that landscape company got rid of those things lol

I had to file the ISF with customs last week. These things should be on there way by now. Expected to be in NY on Nov. 5th. They then need to travel to FL. I am not sure how they get transported on that leg, if by ship, train, or truck. Surely I will have them in my possession by the 1st of the year, right ?????

I've been to China twice - you are much, much more trusting than me to wire them $32K for equipment you can't put your hands on...

Good luck?
This!!!
I do hope it all works out for you but personally I would rather buy something used / wore out, that you can buy parts for locally, and just refurbish the rig.

As already said, better than a wheel barrow! I am sure you’re well aware, when stuff needs repair/parts, and it will, things will get interesting!

looking forward to hearing more! good luck!

Latest update is arriving in NYC Nov 28th. Not sure when that will get it to FL, not sure why it was delayed, not sure why it is taking 6 months from the original money wire to get this stuff. This is obviously designed to help me improve my patience.

I have a small digital camera somewhere. I have an Samsung phone I can use as well if I can figure out how to use it. I only use it for a wifi hotspot for my laptop.

Wasn't sure on this, but looks like 25% tariff. Still way cheaper than buying here. I can pick up tomorrow I think! Oh, and $433 or so to the warehouse on top of this.

I don't know what $ you paid, but ritchie bros had a bunch of new, no name chinese mini's they sold on the last auction I was watching. They brought $6,500- 7,500 each.
Yes, the 1T mini's bring that. This one is a 1.8T, 19 hp Kubota diesel with bucket, hydraulic thumb, and hydraulic breaker.
