It's not a good deal at $600, maybe closer to $350? I'll have to look at it again later. Consider that fridge to be $100 or less.

Yeah definitely not worth 600, but a typical kijiji price.

yup, fridge might seem like a lot, but you can get em new for under 200, they usually go used for $100

I offered the guy $400 and he said $475 is the lowest he'll take. Pass.

You'd have to be desperate at that price, but he might get it. Kegs $25 each, fridge $100 max, CO2 tank 80 max, regulator $30 max, wasn't much more IIRC

Looks like this guy's ad should be put in the "Dumb ass people thread"
:rocky:

Probably one of those people who bought it for that price, and expects others to do the same. If the difference was getting into brewing or buying beer at NSLC, $475 might make sense, it's a timing issue. If you're already bottling and kegging, it's definitely no deal.

Agreed. I thought my offer of $400 was actually generous... haha

Just wait a week or two. If no one bites, he may change his mind.

Price it up, send him the numbers. I think that's the best way to get to the point.

Last time I did that the seller got very angry haha. I just told him it's only worth $400 so if you change your mind, let me know.

there was an ad for a guy selling grolsch bottles at $8/ea... I messaged him and told him you could buy them at the NSLC for $4/ea with beer in them

I never did get a response
