You still haven't topped mine. Was listed as snowblower leafblower - $20.

I thought that sounded like an interesting contraption and imagined a hand held blower. Opened the ad to find a very tiny and blurry picture of my Ariens and an 8HP walk behind blower. Guy wanted $20 each or $30 for both so I took both and sold the leaf blower for $50 about a month later when I picked up my lawn vac. Neither were running at the time.

I also managed a nice Simplicity 5.5HP OHV Tecumseh Chipper / Shredder for $25. Engine ran perfect and all it needed was the blades sharpened and a few nuts and bolts that vibrated out. Still need to make a back cover plate for it, but works fine without. That one even has a 12V starter, but the battery is dead. I haven't tried it with a good battery, but it does click with the dead one that is on it now.
