Not really knowing much about the Craftsman model, I'd say you got a pretty good deal! I'd trim a neighbor's yard for that, not that it would take me only 10 min. to trim any of them (all are farmsteads).

I guess that this is one of those trick math questions that show up on IQ tests.

Let's see........ 10 minutes per week for 2 months. That could be 8 weeks but it could also be 9. Figuring on 9, that would be 90 minutes of your time which happens to be 1.5 hours.

Now if you are a lawyer who bills out at $500.00 per hour, then you just paid $750.00 for that tiller. In that case, you got screwed.

But if you flip burgers at Mickey D's for $10.00 per hour, then I'd say that $15.00 for the tiller is a smokin' deal.

Oh ya I forgot to tell you all that he only wants me to trim every other week. I also just got into the garden tonight and the tiller runs like a dream!!!!

Seems like both parties are happy. Sounds like a good deal to me.
