hello friends I am a recent proud owner of a 1998 new Holland LX 485. I was shocked at what the market is bringing for the three prong round bale spears. It looks like I can't touch them for under 500 and they go for upwards of one thousand to 1500. It just looks like a frame with three spikes on it. I'm just looking for a used model. Does anyone have suggestions on better ways to obtain these, is it better just to find the plate and buy the spikes separately and build your own? I'm not understanding why they are so much more than the PTO style and if anyone has converted a PTO version to a quick attach. Thank you!
