Has anyone seen an Earthmaster CN sold?  I am looking at one that is complete but not running.  The engine is not stuck.  I am interested in it, but have not been able to find anything on pricing.

Just because they are rare doesn't always mean they are expensive.  I'd say anywhere from a couple hundred to a couple thousand.  Mostly depends on the seller and how much the buyer is willing to pay.  If the seller is a little old widow, you don't want to take advantage of her but if it's just some guy trying to get rid of a tractor they don't have any use or interest in, it's just a matter of negotiation.

A rare  "oddball" tractor it is, but not that expensive. Depending on overall condition, parts missing/not missing, and what it would cost to restore it determines the pricing. I've seen a few sell, and I owned one once. What you described... $800-1500.

You are right that rarity and value do not directly relate.  The problem with the odd ball tractors is the low number of collectors.  I bought a MM BG a few years ago.  Only about seven hundred where made, but that did not make it valuable.  Finally sold it to a guy in SD who was a MM guy and wanted it to cultivate potatoes.  Bought a second one and sold it to a guy who collected off-set tractors.
