Selling my stove pricing question

[Chris04626]

After this season i am looking to get rid of my stove
It is an Englander 25-PDV The blower is gone in it, and gaskets around window and hooper should be replaced. Also one of the pieces that holds the glass in the door i think the hole is stripped as only 1 screw will go in and not very tight.


Any idea what i should charge for this? Its a 3-4 years oldhttps://www.hearth.com/talk/threads/help-englander-25-pdvc-keeps-blowing-circuit-board-fuse.106908/

Only 3-4 and that many issues?! Trying to sell something on CL that needs repair gets about as much money as bringing it to a recycler.

I agree with the previous comment. Given the issues with the stove I'd personally offer you no more than 100 to 150 bucks. Selling used and broken on craiglist is a fast way to attract pennies on the dollar.

spend th emoney to get it repaired. you'll double your return.

Is the blower gone or just making loud noises? Hard to sell something you cant demonstrate working.

$50 bucks for a blower motor and some door gaskets along with a couple hours labor should make it an attractive stove to sell in the $400-$550 range.
Maybe $300 if you don`t.

That is if you wait till close to fall before trying to sell otherwise you will be just dumping it on a very soft market. I just picked up a Ecoteck Elena a couple weeks ago for $500 that was shown to run.

englanders flood the used market and don't fetch a lot, especially broken. Restore it, learn something, sell it in good faith to someone in need or donate it for full retail value as a tax write off
