Those can be found on eBay for about $250 but shipping is going to be brutal. I purchased a decent 709 from local Bobcat for $2500 and I thought I got a good deal. Minimal slop in the pins, good hoses, 12" bucket and good seat. Expect to pay $2500 to $4500. Note that backhoe has an early version of a "quick change" bucket. You remove two bolts and a bracket, then the bucket can be slipped off. Handy, but not exactly "quick change".</p></blockquote><p></p>
