Re: Details and cost of combine from MachineryLink
We had a 3 year contract with machinerylink, 2005-2007. We mainly had 2388's but we also had a 9660 sts when they couldn't deliver a 2388 on time. I would recommend that you stay clear of machinerylink. The first 2 yrs I had no complaints. This last year was a disaster. The combine was not delivered on time, it was the wrong combine, and for the fall they never delivered a combine, we had to get one from a dealer. The real kicker is that they didn't even call to tell me that it wasn't going to be there on time. I called them to make sure it was going to be here on time and they said maybe in a week or two. I could have has all the beans cut in 10 good days! So we got out of our contract and rented one from a local dealer. The salesman and all machinerylink staff were terrible!! No one would return phone calls or give me honest answers on the deliver time. I would advise to stay clear from them. They have really gone downhill recently. The cost depends on how many hours. 100 hour minimum, approximately 130-160 dollars per hour depending model and hours used per season. They like to set up 3 year leases.
