Nice but overpriced
OK.. nobody's trying to beat you up for bringing these tractors to our attention. Thanks for being so thoughtful.
However.......................................................................
the ad is hilarious.
In one breath he says:"Both mowers are in excellent condition though. Well taken care of " but we also read that the deck on the 210 doesn't move and the tractor needs a solenoid or keyswitch.
When I read that, it puts the tractor instantly into the category of "parts tractor" and the value drops to $150.00 because a 210 is mechanical drive, not hydraulic drive. It was the entry-level GT for Case.
As for the 220, it is the lowest hp GT in the hydraulic drive series. I'd value it at around $400.00 tops. Of course, others are free to agree or disagree in accordance with the values for these models in their area.

If the 220 looks as good in person, and considering it's hydraulic lift, AND if the engine works great and has a holding valve; I don't see why it wouldn't be worth a max of $550-600. Make sure the muffler and PTO clutch bearings and pad are good. If it has aluminum deck mandrels, make sure they don't have play. The cast steel mandrels are the preferred kind.
The 210 isn't worth as much, even if it were mint, simply because it's the non-hydraulic Case with a manual transmission. Considering he wants to sell them as a pair, they are being sold with bulk purchase discount in mind... Even if the seller isn't smart enough to realize it. He says the deck is siezed... and if it has aluminum mandrels, there is a good chance they need replacing as well. He makes a general claim to the cosmetic condition but nothing specific... Or any mention how well the engine runs. Unless it impressed the crap out of you I'd pay $100 tops.
Good luck talking sense into him. He's asking about $450 more than I'd consider what they're worth on their best day.

222 is the old standard for 12" wheel Case. 12hp, hydrive, and most have hydraulic implement lift and 44" decks. 224 is the step up with 14hp Kohlers and can handle a 48" deck easily. In twin cylinder models they also offer 226/3016-16hp, and 3018-18hp. All are good machines. the 220 is very capable but can't handle anything more than a 44" deck. If you only intend on using hydraulic-driven implements then there is little point buying more than a 224 or 226/3016. Hydrive systems are unable to transfer more than 14-16hp through the lines, in stock form, and any more horsepower is a waste of fuel.

If anybody has interest in the 220 I'd personally like the 210 for parts but have no use for the 220, could work something out to split the deal, kinda far for me though.
Case produced two lines of garden tractors. The 200 series and the 400 series.
The 200 series was known as the Low Profile models due to their 12" rear rim size and came in the following models. 210, 220, 222, 224 and later on 226. The 210 had a Peeless 4 speed manual transmission and a 10 hp Kohler K engine. The other tractors were all hydraulic drive models that were essentially identical except for engine hp. The last digit denotes the hp.
The 220 was 10 horse, the 222 was 12, the 224 was 14 .... all with Kohler K's and the 226 had a 16 hp Onan twin in it.
The 400 series are known as the High Clearance or High Wheel models due to the 16" rear rim size and 4 additional inches of ground clearance over the 200 series. For a short time, there was a 12 hp 442 but that was quicky dropped in favor of the Onan powered 446 model in 1972. There was also a Kohler K powered 444 and later on in 1980, an 18 hp 448 model with an Onan twin.
Parts-wise, there is little difference between the 200 and 400 series in a given model year. One is as capable as the other and both series have their strong points. These models were built from 1970 to 1988 with the Snap-Fast implement attachment system. Unlike Deere and Cub, you can swap decks, blades and snow blowers from one model to the other without any problems. There are a couple of minor exceptions to that statement but interchangabilty amongst the attachments is extremely high.
On top of that, these tractors offer something that no other brand has and that's a constant source of hydraulic power thanks to a system that flows upwards of 10 gallons of oil per minute and is capable of producing upwards of 2200 PSI on demand. You cannot show me another 60's, 70's or 80's garden tractor that can make this claim.
