Putting a price on any cub is quite hard to do. Location is a big factor in the price. If cub cadets are fairly plentiful the price can be much lower than a location that very few cubs exist.

That's easy for you to say Nick, since your spending your dad's money!
If it was your pocket, your tune would change. Besides, I know you have never spent that much on a cub.

Have you ever paid $1200 for a cub? I know your a collector. I think your high on pricing though..... You didn't even give anywhere near that for your 800, and it's way more rare than a 169. When it comes to older cubs, you DO NOT get what you pay for. They all need work, and the more expensive ones are just that. More expensive. Unless your buying fully restored, it's not worth giving $1200 IMHO. I guess if you have money to blow, that's up to you. Nick, you do need to remember that what we spend on cubs is our own money, someone isn't buying them for us. Not being mean, or rippin on you. But seriously man, your only 15.

I know, but what does it matter if I'm only 15? I know you don't get what you pay for now that I think about it. my 169 is in great condition, so what we paid for it, I think it was worth it., I do believe I know about pricing.

THANK YOU! This should have been the answer to this thread a long time ago. I will never forget the advice that someone gave me a LONG time ago.

"It's worth what you are willing to pay"

If you don't think it's worth it, then don't buy it. Pretty simple. Shoot him an offer that you feel comfortable with. If he takes it, great, if not, move on.

Jonathan, you are right. No Cub is really worth what you pay for. And I will make a statement...169's are overpriced. Period. The only thing that makes them "rare" (and I use that term loosely anymore with these) is that they made 4,005 of them. They are a glorified 149. And that is coming from a guy who has owned FOUR 169's. While 4,005 is low in Cub numbers, they seem to all be surfacing here in the last year or so, due to the word being spread that they might be worth something. So, in my opinion, they should be worth $100-150 more than a good 149.

That being said, I realize that I have been trying to sell one of mine in the 7-900 dollar range, which most probably think that's freaking ridiculous. BUT, when you see collectors like Nick who are willing to pay higher prices for Cubs that are lower production, why should I follow suit to guys that are lower than me? If they want to pay it, let them! I know I wouldn't give that kind of money for one, but, thats me.

That's just my .02 on the deal. If anyone don't like it, tough!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
