Bridgeport milling machine with tons of accessories. $10,000

While I'm no expert ....there are a lot of accessories included with that mill but unless they add up to about $7000 I'm thinking $10000 is way too much for a worn out milling machine.
 
Well lets count off accessories. Say both rotary tables with chucks as 800 CAD. Vices? Say 200 each (generous pricing). clamping set and collets etc - 100, parallels plus coax 100, end mills 100. So say, 1400. Lets be generous and make it 2000 (!).

Machine is worn out. Even through it is a BP it is not worth more then 3000. Heck beaten abused machines can go for 2000. But lets be generous and say 3000.

So a very generous price for this is 5000 CAD.
 
10K is a completely ridiculous price. Even with all the tooling I wouldn't pay more than $4000.
I can buy a new import for 10K
 
New price for all that is just over 12K$ (you can't buy a REAL BP new any more, the Grizzly/BP are now made in china.
The very best scenario is that is all in like-new condition, then 5K to 6K would be right.

My POV is that is not a penny over 5k, and that's being generous. the mill looks like a full rebuild, to be frank.
