NW Bus Sales have always been really proud of their stuff and price it accordingly.

Since you know what they paid for it you know how hard you can deal in order to get it.

Once they run it through their shop you will have to pay at least $1K more even if they don't do anything but look at it and then clean it up real well inside and out.

Thinking about buying a bus...

Is this the proper place to post some c-list adds to get feed back from the group if the buses are good candidates, or should I start a separate post?

Here's the first one, in any case:

It is tempting to make low offer on it but I think I'll let them sit on it a while. Its probly not going anywhere at that price.

I have purchased more than 30 buses from them over the years.

I have never had any problems with any of the buses I purchased from them. All of them showed up in better condition with lower miles than advertised.

just search bus. I've bid on this site before. They set your account quickly, and refund deposits quickly if needed. The website doesn't charge any fees unless it specifically says so in the listing, which isn't often from what I've seen.

Anyone want a Wayne with the oddball DT 408?

https://cincinnati.craigslist.org/ct...550044810.html

Stopped by and looked it over myself - it's kinda rough and probably overpriced. Didn't get to look at the floors or frame though.

I've sent the guy 2 emails with no answers. Wasn't planning on spending that much for his bus, but was, somewhat interested. Oh well!

Looks like a good deal in Ohio, I'd be all over it if it was a 13-14 window, it's a 10 window. Everything in the description is favorable, low mileage, good tires, 17/18 inspection. Lift and spare parts come with.
