Suggested price on a Delta 46-700 lathe

What if they were Easy Tools and Sorby gouges? 41 such unused tools could easily be worth $700.

When I bought my 46-700 delta in 1995 ($468), it came with a bonus wooden boxed set of

8 delta turning tools (parting, three gouges, two skew chisels, scrapers).

Middling quality HSS, retailed for $68 at the time.

The mini turning tools may turn out to be a cheap set of carving chisels, or may be top-of-the-line - not enough information in the OP.

The most current price on a used 46-700, at least when last sold as used on Amazon:

Sure, but without knowing what's really for sale, declaring $700 to be "way too much" is asinine.

Interested to learn more, if Dan is still around.
