Yeah, I think they see the "Professional" and 3hp and think it's for real.

I bought my Emerson-built Craftsman for $100 after showing the owner the 1 1/2 HP rating on the motor. Fortunately, he knew enough to understand the difference.

never mind the saw did you see that washing machine in the background?

I was too busy looking at the coin operated car vac!

Price is a bit high. Too bad there was no price listed for the wringer washer.

The scooter looked salvageable.

"a bit high" is an understatement. The wringer washer might be worth more depending on its condition.

Actually, my first thought after looking at the pictures was that it looks like he's starting a salvage yard.

Dibs on the camping trailer if it is all there.

It is an interesting shop though isn't it? I wonder how long this stuff has been out there and how many hours he might have run that RAS on the extension cord there in the first picture?

I can't tell if the guard is there or not, but certainly that piece of chipboard that he has place on the frame is intrigueing... guess the table and fence have probably rotted away.

Sometimes just the fact of "ownership" makes the tool more valuable, or so this guy might think.
