Both the 2k m7 and the 1.8k 520 pp are pristine condition. less so the others. I personally like the model 10s per se, but do not recommend to others to seek them..

I'm not sure everyone has access to imgur so let me know if that's the case. Thanks again!
As JPG said, not everyone has access to Facebook. Likewise with imgur. Never heard of it. Can't see the pictures but have to agree with David. As for the model 10's, again without seeing the pictures they are way over priced.
When you click the link what happens? Is there a way to post them here? I tried to figure that out but didn't see an option. Thank you
Here is the page I get from imgur. When you make a post there is a button at the bottom of the page that says attachments. That is where you can attach pictures or documents to your post. There are size restriction however. I suggest resizing pictures to 1024 X 768. Also, if you provide links to an off site picture archive and it goes away in the future (they do) the pictures are lost to the forum. Posting them here assures they will always be visible.

Sounds like the consensus on this one is overpriced, even with all the SPTs
- Overpriced from what I've gathered so far even with the SPTs

Thank you for your help. I'm going to upload them here now

Wow, you’ve got some great choices here! I think you’ve also gotten some thoughtful advice about the 520 vs. the Mark 7.
Commenting on this offering:
viewtopic.php?p=322219#p322219
…the matching Model 10 ERs, I’d concur that the nearly $1000 asking price would be better spent on other machines. And I’m a
big fan of 10ERs - the open access to the drive system makes these models a great tinkerer’s tool, and it looks like a prior owner of these went to
town on a pretty amazing custom stand and setup!
That being said, taking the shortened machine with the bandsaw/belt sander, giving it the speed changer from the full-sized machine, and that one machine wouldn’t be a bad deal at half the asking. And that would be as a
secondary machine to a main Mark V or Mark 7 (yes, you’ll find most of this crowd won’t have just one!
), but I’m guessing the seller wouldn’t split that pair up…
Good luck with your decision - you’ll have some fun with whatever you choose!
