Answers:
I'm curious why it wasn't sold at $1000 if there was a bid?
I used to hold one one of those, I paid about $250 unsullied, but those dollars were worth more then. Since this specific lath is no longer made it have some value as a collectors item. but it even so, is not such a great lath. Personally I wouldn't pay more than $250 again, and that would a short time ago be for nostalgia. But someone might pay more but it will be bloody to find someone willing to go $1000. If I be buying a lath to actually use, I'd but a larger, new, introduction before one of those.
I would guess anywhere from $350 to $600 depending on what accoutrements and tools go with it. I looks resembling it is in good shape. You should enjoy taken the $1000 if someone was willing to income that for it.
