I bought a 580C three years back to do a house project. I paid $8500 for it. It isn't the prettiest thing but it runs good and has been very dependable.
There are LOTS of Case hoes around and usually a bargain can be found.
I somewhat agree about buying a newer model since it is newer, but they have lots of electrics on them. Thats great when they are working but expensive when they don't. A good example is the joystick controls for the hoe. Nice, but mine just has some levers and rods to the valve body. Very dependable. One BIG thing to look at is the tires, they are expensive. I have replaced both backs and one front on mine. Thats about $1000. OUCH! I ran into the guy I bought mine from and he said he regrets selling it now. He bought another newer model, a Super K I think with a turbo. He said he has had lots of problems with it, including replacing the turbo.
They are very handy to have. You won't believe the things you can do with one. I have paid for mine and am thinking about selling it but man I really hate to.
