image.jpg I have a beautiful wood stove (Resolute) for 31 years. It has been well cared for although not used in 30 years. I need to sell it, what is a reasonable price to ask?
 
The "Bat Model Resolute"!
 
Oops, I woke it up...

Well heck, that knocks $500 off of the value.
 
Is that a wood/coal Resolute, or just wood? It seems to be in great shape. Why hasn't it been used in 30 years?
 
Its tough as there probably is less of a market in VIrginia. If there are no cracks they routine sell in the $300 to $500 in northern New England
 
I successfully sold a wood burning insert in Craig's List. It was a bit annoying but I was very motivated so I even offered delivery. I brought it to the guys house and helped him hand truck it straight to his fireplace.
 
That was our first big stove purchase. Sold for about $460 new and given its condition it will probably get close to that price if you wait about 15 days. It is a great small stove.
