how much is my tractor worth?

I have found another wheel horse on craigslist I am hoping its a 300 series, but if I get it I would sell my 211-5. it runs good, every now and then it will backfire when shutting down, needs new seat, and painted. Overall it is in good shape I just would like a garden tractor and not a lawn tractor I would be asking 500 for the tractor and a trailer. I paid 450 for the tractor and 75 for the trailer havent even had them a month yet.

Seems a bit steep for a verticle engined lawn tractor with issues. Unfortunately only the old (1960's-1970's) verticle engined tractors seem to have any real holding value. As the vert's got newer they kept getting built using cheaper ingredients which put them in the same class as MTD stuff.

Sorry to have to be blunt.

na thats alright, I knew I probably paid to much myself, but I was so excited to get my first WH and I didnt do a lot of background info on it until after I got it. Oh well does what I need it to do and is fun to ride. :omg:
