Country Flame stove identification

[hot rod4]

Long time lurker need some help. Contacted the seller of this stove tonight but he was of little help and hoped someone here might help me figure out if this is a good buy or not. If not have my eyes set on a new NC-30 from Home Depot but this would allow me to use the piping in the garage for another install. Anyway link to said stove.

I would pass at that price!

Maybe at $200 I would go for it...but that's an old stove.

"I PAID OVER $3500 FOR IT ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO THANKS FOR READING.. YOU WANT IT CALL ME AT 636-797-9779 COUNTRY FLAME IS A WELL MADE STOVE AND LAST FOREVER, A LITTLE CLEANING UP AND A NEW SHOT OF PAINT THIS ONE IS NEW AGAIN"

Some how I think that stove is older than 10 years. And I can't imagine he paid $3500 for it back then. But whatever, why don't people who are trying to sell stuff use a simple dust cloth B4 posting a pic online?

Is that thing even EPA type? I would pass.

Here's another thread with a similar stove I think.

Yeah, he paid that including a two story installation labor, all the chimney, etc.....

Vintage on that stove seems to be early 80's.....non-EPA.

Thanks for the replies I was hoping maybe this would be a decent sized cat stove that just needed a little TLC but it wasn't meant to be.
