Old Jacobsen Verticut & Parker Blower Value

My Great Uncle I worked for from '93-'99 retired last year. He still has some old equipment he is trying to sell. Curious what you would pay, to see if he is being reasonable on prices. I am part time with adt 15 accts with plans to go full time next year. I could use all these items to finish out the season if I get them for the right price.

I don't have pic of 2 items I'm interested in but they are

Used Stihl FS 90 Trimmer

Used Stihl Extended Reach Hedge Trimmer-don't know Model#. It is abt 13 yrs old cuz he bought it in '99, my last year with him, looks barely used. Cutting head is fixed at abt 45 degree angle of shaft. Newer ones are either fixed at 0 degree or adjustable 135 degree

Pictured is

Old Jacobsen Verticut

Old Parker (I think) walk-behind leaf blower.

I know some would not buy at all cuz of their age but I can't justify buying all this new. I am also mechanically inclined & can fix or fabricate if something breaks

$250 for the blower. $100 for the edger. Maybe $200 for the newer Snapper. The two older Snappers are junk to me. All 3 of the Snappers appear to have B&S engines on them and I don't care for those engines. $200 for the verticutter. $100 each for the trimmer and the hedge trimmer.

Thanks Richard! I wasn't far off then. Before I made the OP I made my cousin an offer of $600 & you were at $650 for the 4 items I am interested in. MY Uncles prices are

Parker Blower. $375
Jacobsen Verticut. $125
Stihl Extended Reach Hedge Trimmer $350
Stihl FS 90 not priced when I was there. ???
Total not including FS 90. $850

When I offered $600, my cousin counter offered $750. I thought abt it & offered $700. He said his dad was gonna kill him for sellin at $750. So I walked away. If he comes back to me when they don't sell, I am gonna go back to my original $600. Really didn't want to goto $700
