    Rockram concrete pulverizer

    Has anyone here used a Rockram hyd concrete pulverizer? I am looking at one to reduce broken concrete down to a size my crusher can handle, and to deal with rebar. This one looks like new, and the price is about the same as a used mechanical pulverizer, so I am wondering what the catch is?
