Hello all, new to the forums, but already have learned a lot from here. I recently purchased a used Kubota B2650 (2019), and would very much like to put a loader on it. I have been looking for a used LA534, but there is not really any out there. Would there be any other loaders that are compatible with my machine to look out for? Not really in the position to buy new at this point. Thanks in advance!

Check out the price of the LA535 loader ( the one on the LX2610 it's the same as your B2650). Thru your local dealers Sales not parts dept. It might end up being about the same price as a used one. As you should be able to get 10-15% off the MSRP.
Used loaders are very rare-especially ones that have the proper mounts to fit your particular machine, are close enough to buy quickly, and are reasonably priced.
Good luck with your quest.

The OP might find it easier and cheaper to buy a tractor with a loader already on it and sell the other one.
Thanks everyone for your input. I will keep my eye out, or worst case, I will buy new. Not a huge rush, my Case IH 685 has a loader so I’m not stuck. As for selling, the price I got the tractor for makes it worth it to buy a loader rather than sell and replace. Thanks again.
Good luck on your quest. It seems when you aren't looking for a particular item, they are everywhere. Start looking and they just don't exist. 
Is that part of the dreaded Murphy's Law. 
Is that part of the dreaded Murphy's Law. Hahaha, definitely feels that way. Looking online, it looks like there were several that were damaged in transit that sold for ridiculously low prices, but that was last year. Currently waiting to hear back regarding a fire damaged unit. Fingers crossed.Good luck on your quest. It seems when you aren't looking for a particular item, they are everywhere. Start looking and they just don't exist.
This is the reason I ended up building my own loader. Cheap to get a bare tractor, the old la302 (in my case) is basically unobtainable. Shipping costs are prohibitive, and the cost of a used loader is ridiculous. Best of luck.

Do you mean you got the 2019 B2650 tractor (no loader) for a low price? Then have you considered a trade-in for an LX2610 w/loader and possibly getting a better trade price for your B2650 than you spent on it even? It's pretty new, in great shape I assume with low hours and maintained per spec.
