BRK;

I could easily find 10 people to buy one BUT they would need to be well made and everyone would want to see a prototype first.

If I remember correctly the original auger caddy sold for $300.00 or $400.00 but it was made to last a life time. I personally feel it's worth twice that amount. The machine work in the head alone and custom bearings are worth the original asking price.

The original manufacturer should have increased his price and waited it out a bit. ATV's were just starting to be used exclusively on ice when it came out. There are many many more ATV's on the ice now than there were then.
