Cherry Picker Questions??

I was wondering what some of you guys have for cherry pickers? The other day from OReillys I bought one for $240 and its a AC/Delco 2 ton unit. Is this priced about right, or are there cheaper/better ones? I'm debating about taking it back, i'll hardly ever use it at all. I was in a pinch the other day and used it for 2 mins, otherwise its been take up space in my garage. I'd almost rather have the $$$ than the cherry picker, but I can see it coming in handy in the future as well. I was thinking maybe I could get a cheaper one around, and take back the expensive one.

I'd like to hear some input...
 


I dont' have one :( I am sure you will run across other uses. Oh btw i don't think you can return something like that.
 
I have one, and it's original price was close to that (I bought it used for $25 but had been looking at them for a couple years) you can get one a little cheaper through harbor freight, and they are decent (friend of mine uses one daily, and has used it to pull the engines from propane delivery trucks for 10 years now)
 


I don't know If anyone here has a membership, but I see these at SAMS club sometimes around $180 for a fold-able 2-ton
 
2 ton, foldable......cost me a small fortune...but WORTH its weight in gold.

Oh ya! Foldable ones are sooooooo nice. I am not sure where my dad got his, but because I have the garage space for it, and I use it a whole hell of a lot more than him, I get to store it/use it for free.

The other one he has is a big bad boy, lets just say, it has no problem lifting a Caterpillar engine from a semi truck. Its a tank for sure.
