Howdy friends!
I am new to selling used stuff and I need some opinions about what things would be worth. I'm thinking of selling the remainder of my casting equipment and a friend here on CAS City is interested. My stuff is used, but not at all abused and no more than 4 years old. IF I sell, it will include a LOT of goodies, including:
PRS 250 45 Cal. BigLube boolit mould
Lee Production Pot PRO IV (15-20 lb.) new version
Lee ingot mould
Lyman ingot mould
Lyman dipper
Lyman lead thermometer
Cabine Tree standard lead hardness tester
Rapine mould prep (3/4 full)
2 containers of Frankford Arsenal lead flux compound
Mallet made from a hammer handle
A gas-fired melter (similar to a turkey pot burner) - not used by me, and disassembled for cleaning - uses a 20 or 40 lb propane can
A postal-type scale that reads to 35 -50 lbs. (a cheap-o, but decent for estimates)
Some other dross spoons and little stuff that is handy to have
And about 50 to 60 ingots of ready-to-use alloy about 10-12 Brinnel hardness, some pure lead (maybe 20 lbs - some cleaned & poured into ingots, some uncleaned), and about 150-200 lbs of uncleaned wheelweights, with about 10 lbs of pure linotype
I KNOW that shipping would be prohibitive, but my pard and I live close enough to meet half-way with gas not being too much of an issue for the 200 mile trip (round trip distance)
So, in your opinions, what would a fair price be? I know that $1.99 would be a GREAT price, but not fair, since I actually PAID for almost everything, including about half of the wheelweights and ALL of the lead.
I want to make him a fair price that we both could live with. He might even be reading this, so ... whaddya think?
Thanks for the suggestions - if ya have any!
PS - if he doesn't want to buy this stuff, I'll entertain offers from others, but HE has 1st option and I want to sell it all together, I think.
