Used mixers
I have to laugh. Been doing ebay and craigslist searches looking for a Hobart. Laughing because a minimum of say 75% shown in photos look to be stored in home garages, the back of panel trucks, the back yard, along side gas cans at times. It's like there is a Hobart wasteland out there. I can't figure it out, but it's funny.
And yet strangely, everybody wants top retail out of their derelict machines.
What size mixer are you looking for? I picked up a nice 30 qt Univex for a good price.
I've seen some real junk go for big bucks. Tonight I watched aa auction where three new in box scales sold for $75, $80, $95 but if you did a quick google search you could find the same scale for $50 new in the box. People go crazy at auctions.
I used it occasionally when I had a little bakery cafe. More often I used the KA & Magic Mill on my counter. I bought it used but it has a beautiful hum when it's working, and did a fabulous job with mixing bagel dough. I'm on the west coast of Florida. If you're interested let me know.

Is this still available, Bonni?
Yes and of course I'm storing it in my garage, as suggested above. Bonni
