Wonder what the value of a Honda HS621 is? Debating on getting a smaller one for light duty. This particular one needs new rubbers and a scrapper. Here's a picture of it https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc1/998593_10151747847403118_368361744_n.jpg

I would consider buying a brand new Toro 621R or 621E for around $450 - $500 since it will be cheaper in the long run. Toro SS units are really nice. Honda HS621 is very nice too if in a good shape but the parts not cheap to replace. I have Honda HS520 and it is not a bad unit. These SS units are easy enough for wives (or your kids) to operate.

Along this line, a discontinued or good used but not abused Toro 221QR would be an good alternative.  $80 in consumable auger/scraper/belt parts every 3-5 years is very reasonable in terms of cost of ownership.

OK, Thank you for the help. I may just hold off on the HS621 for now. See if I can find the ones recommended. Running out of room with all the toys. Need a barn now!
