BH77 - what's it worth

[torch]

The internet newbie Catch-22*:

Post a question and be told to use the search function to research before asking questions.
Use the search function, ask a related question and be told one is dragging up old threads.

<sigh>

The alternative is to preface the question by stating "I know this is an old thread, but..." so you can be told to start your own thread.

*for those too young to remember the book:

Yossarian: Can't you ground someone who's crazy?
Doc Daneeka: Oh, sure. I have to. There's a rule saying I have to ground anyone who's crazy.
Yossarian: Then why don't you ground me? I'm crazy. Ask Clevinger.
Doc Daneeka: Clevinger? Where is Clevinger? You find Clevinger and I'll ask him. Yossarian: Then ask any of the others. They'll tell you how crazy I am.
Doc Daneeka: They're crazy
Yossarian: Then why don't you ground them?
Doc Daneeka: Why don't they ask me to ground them?
Yossarian: Because they're crazy, that's why.
Doc Daneeka: Of course they're crazy, I just told you they're crazy, didn't I? And you can't let crazy people decide if they crazy or not.
Yossarian: Is Orr crazy?
Doc Daneeka: He sure is.
Yossarian: Can you ground him?
Doc Daneeka: I sure can. But first he has to ask me to. That's part of the rule. Yossarian: Then why doesn't he ask you to?
Doc Daneeka: Because he's crazy, He has to be crazy to keep flying combat missions after all the close calls he's had. Sure, I can ground Orr. But first he has to ask me to.
Yossarian: That's all he has to do to be grounded?
Doc Daneeka: That's all. Let him ask me.
Yossarian: And then you can ground him?
Doc Daneeka: No. Then I cannot ground him. See, there's a catch, Catch-22. Anyone who wants to get out of combat duty isn't really crazy.
Yossarian: That's some catch, that Catch-22.

@cooldslug I'm very glad you posted that as there's a BH77 for sale by me and I wasn't sure if it would fit my L2800. Your post shows it does!

Thanks!

I'm compiling a list of tractors compatible with the BH77.

So far I have: B2650, B3350, L2501, L3301, L3901, L3200, L3800, L3560, LX2610, LX3310

If you know of any others, please reply and I'll look into it.

My local dealer says I'll need a BH77 for my L3400HST

This thread is more than 2 years old.
I would be very surprised if that BH77 is still available.

I think he was just adding to the list of models it would fit.

I looked around for a rules thread but couldn't find anything specific so I'm not 100% certain we're allowed to post "what's it worth" threads. If not allowed, I'll delete.

My L3901 was recently lost in a fire. I have a BH77 that was not on the tractor at the time. I am upgrading to an MX5400 with the BH92 so I no longer need the BH77 and I intend to sell it on the private market.

I bought it in August 2016 and I estimate the BH77 has roughly 50 hours on it. It could be 10 or so higher or lower than that, but it's so low either way that it doesn't really matter.

The BH still looks new. Only used on my property for basic chores. It has the mechanical thumb. I just bought a Bxpanded QA coupler and 6" trenching bucket and they've never been installed (they arrived a few days before the fire). I'll likely sell these separate unless I find a buyer for everything before the QA coupler and trench bucket sell. I did send an email to Bxpanded asking about their return policy but they have not responded.

The BH subframe was damaged in the fire and I will be buying a new subframe (plus any other BH parts that were on the tractor, if any - hydraulics?), though I plan to wait until I have a buyer for the BH77 and then I'll buy a subframe that fits the buyer's tractor so I'm not limiting myself to L3901 owners only.

Having said all that, I'm curious what you folks think the like-new BH77 is worth? I've seen one or two for sale but not many hit the market as a standalone unit. Most seem to sell with a tractor as a package.

This is a 6 year old thread, NOT very likely still for sale.
