Here is a better link:

BC Auction

stupid government site does not allow opening links to items directly... I guess they never thought someone may want to share their stuff...

Also open.dll? are they using something from 1980s?

Mill and lathe are nice looking machines. Seem pretty well cared for considering it's government.

 

[Tomc938]

Ah, U Vic. That's explains the condition. Sweet setup between the two.

 

[Six O Two]

wow, that website is terrible. I don't know why government website are so terrible (I mean... I do know why, but I wish it weren't so).

But the lathe is pretty at least...

 

[YotaBota]

Sold, $4150, add fees and taxes $5484.64

 

[Dabbler]

does that mean the market price for a used, clean C0636 is about 5000$? really?

I happen to know they were $7500 new in Mar-2017 with 2 chucks & 2-axis DRO installed, but have no idea what they go for now.

Yep, its not cheap! Prices are going up - even simple stuff like electrical cable tripled in price in the last two years.

Yup, I was on that auction and threw my bid in as well. I had a feeling it would go up to 5k which is still not bad when you look at comparables on the market. Wasn’t willing to go that high on a Chinese lathe though. British/US or Taiwan for sure.
