I am looking at getting a 220 compressor that can handle more than my current 110 craftsman 33 gallon I believe.  I saw a used 7hp 60 gallon on ebay that is fairly close to me.  I think it's made by Campbell Hausfeld.

What's scfm rating on it, how much is he trying to get for it?

Not sure, someone had already asked that question and he didn't know.  I guess he is selling for a friend, some 80 year old lady or something.  He has it listed on craigslist for $350, on ebay for .99 right now and no reserve.  The auction has five days left...

This is a Campbell Hausfield "Farmhand" brand air compressor sold by Tractor Supply. 7 horsepower, 60 gallon tank, 135 psi maximum pressure, dual capacitor start motor. It has a price tag on it of $579.99 and it looks to be about five to eight years old. It has been used very little but it is dusty. I checked the oil and it appears clean - as in fresh. I am selling this for a friend - a retired, 70+ year-old lady that owned a Christmas tree farm. She knows nothing about this other than her workman told her to buy it years ago when the one they had quit. It seems to be in good shape - as in not used very much. If I did not have one, I'd buy it. It is sitting in my barn unused so please disregard all the junk piled around it - I didn't have time to pretty everything up for a photo shoot. This ain't no super model...it's an air compressor. I don't know anything more about this than I have written so please don't hold my feet to the fire if it is not what you expected. The owner doesn't know what else to do with it so I'm doing what I can.

It is already bolted to the factory delivery pallet. I can load it into a pickup truck or onto a trailer but I will not get involved shipping this. For $1.00 a mile I will deliver it to the nearest freight dock and you, as the buyer, can deal with shipping it from that point. I will not ship this internationally...not even to Canada. I listed this starting at 99 cents and it will sell to the high bidder. No exact weight but assume it to be three to four hundred pounds.

guaranteed there will be some shill bidding going on there.
.99 no reserve. they'll have their friends drive up the price once an opening bid is made I bet
CH is ok stuff but not the best. They sell it at walmart.
I'd say if you get it for $250 or under, you would be doing ok.  I'd wait until the last 30 minutes of the listing to start watching it though.
Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

Yeah that's what I was thinking.  I figured if I got it around $200 it would be a decent deal. 

Silver R/T

It's pretty much what I have now. It has decent power but it's not the best. You won't be able to run a body shop with it lol

It will be just fine for home use. I have the 110v version and its been a great unit.  Plumb in your Craftsman to this unit and run both and you will have all the air you will ever need.
350$ seems a tad high in my opinion. I'd hope for more around 200$.
