Default Colorado is really proud of thier Warns!

Every few days I've been checking on Craigslist for a descent priced used Warn winch. I didn't realize that they are collector items. Do these ever come up at a good price and I keep missing them or do people think that if you throw something off a cliff and pick it up 3 years later that it is some how worth more?

Is there a good deal to be found locally?
Maybe my head is on wrong and I'm looking deals in the face and not jumping on them when I should?

advice?

why buy a warn when you can get a new superwinch epi 9.0 for 500 shipped? It beat out the warn in the winches in hell test done by 4wheeler magazine i think it was. look it up it is a great winch.
