I don't know if he'll get that much, but that is what he wants to buy it now. I see a 141 lb Hay Budden on ebay right now that the guy wants $900 for and that one has chipped edges. If it is in good shape, I think you could get $2.50+ a pound for it without any trouble, at least where I am. It also depends on what shape the face of the anvil is in, is it flat or all beaten down, are the edges chipped? From what I have seen the past few years, that knife making show on the History Channel has driven interest in blacksmithing to new highs and prices for anything having to do with smithing have gone way up. This one comes in at 148LBS the edges are good and has a farrier. I was told that was the going price for them at that time. This is a pretty cool piece Hay Budden was considered the roll Royce of anvils back in the day. I paid a little over a dollar per pound and it was about 120 lbs. I bought an anvil at an auction about 15 years ago.
