I had a "going out of business sale" at my shop this weekend. I did pretty well, but one disapointment was not selling my Parks/Craftsman planer. It has a pretty new motor, new blades, and is well tuned.
The reaction I got from the potential customers "It's pretty old, isn't it?". How do you convince a potential buyer whose lunch box is wearing out after 5 years that he is better of with a 60 year old Parks? He is isn't he? I'm only asking $200 for it. Too much?
