Need a nice jointer? Someone asking $500 for this on our local craiglist! Who says there are no bargains on craigslist!

I saw a used Rikon 10-325 bandsaw on Craigslist for $1000, so there are bargains everywhere.

$500 craftsman ras's pop up here. Every once in a while I try to talk some sense into them.

Had a guy a few days ago selling a tiny no name benchtop table saw for $350. It looked like it had sat outdoors in the NM desert for 10 years. He was FIRM! on his price too.

Did it say "Vintage"? Because adding the word Vintage to any Craigslist advertisement automatically adds 20% to the value of whatever is being sold.

Or, that is what most sellers of Vintage stuff think.

(Yes, some stuff is vintage but the word seems to be everywhere now)

[Adam Herman]

if its "mid century" you get to add 30%


I see shaker, deco, and nouveau stuff on CL mis-labeled as mid century. gold cherubs are not "mid century"

Old jointers like that are all over CL here for 3 to 500. its crazy town.

Mike and Frank would probably pay more.

My favorite is when people mis-label a RAS as a "table saw".

My favorite is when people mis-label a RAS as a "table saw".

You mean a "radio alarm saw"?

$1500 at the local Salvation Army... and was missing parts as a bonus. I looked at it at least 5 times to make sure it wasn't a misprint or a misplaced decimal but nope.. $1500!

Unfortunately - there can be political games going on at places like that thrift store.... The "person in the know" prices the object stupid... It sits and sits and sits... The fellow wont budge for some crazy reason....

Then somebody decides to jettison the thing because it just won't sell... And guess who is there to take the scrap off their hands? You got it - that same do gooder....

I have seen them do stuff like this because "Those junk shop dealers buy our stuff then mark it up in their own store..." Yeah... Well... YOU are getting it totally free on donation.. He has to pay for it... And he also has to let it sit around while nobody buys it for a fouple years till he finally negotiates a much lower price...

The stand alone is worth $500.00! They don't make 2 x 4's like that any more!
