Hello, have a Norwood Lumbermate 2000 that my father bought a number of years ago that's been sitting in a shed for the last 7-8 years unused, and looking to sell it.  Frame is 20'long, has the trailer/towing package, 23 HP Briggs twin engine, auto lube, plus we have a log loading package that's new in the boxes, never put on the machine.  condition of the unit is pristine, in other words, it doesn't have alot of mileage on it.  found some older posts discussing the value of these units but they are 5-6 years old.   finding any other value related info online is difficult.   

wondering if anyone can help me ballpark a value??  thanks

    I'd look on line and talk with the Norwood dealer and see what new cost and delivery for one like it currently is. If the delivery is still way out like they used to be (think one year+ for some mills) you may be set up for a quick sale and could ask what you paid for it or even more if you know approximately that the purchase price was.

   If I were selling my 10 y/o WM today I'd ask what I paid for it or more as they have gone up in price since I bought mine and are a long lead time item to get one.

Call Norwood and explain what you want to do. They should give you all the info you need. They might even help you sell it.
It is important for Norwood to know you are selling it so when the new owner calls them for parts they will know that the mill was sold and not stolen.
I also have a Lumbermate2000. It is a great mill.
