advice needed - vapochilled - 10-30-2016
I'm going to post my G1023RL table saw for sale
What would be considered a "fair" price?
It has maybe cut 20 linear feet since new.
I just have no idea what to ask, don't want to offend but don't want to sell myself short either
Help guys, please

$800 and see what happens. If you have some time $900. If I would ever get rid of mine I think that is where I would price it. I think it is fair but location makes a difference.

If it were me, I'd start at $1000. A new one is $1300 + tax + shipping. You can always come down a bit on price if you want.

A used 1023 is not a $700-$800 saw to me. That is used unisaw or pm66 with a baldor or marathon or leeson equipped motor. They were $1000 new. Guessing $550-$600. You can always lower later I guess.

The 1023rl is the new version with a riving knfe.

I'm with Dave on this, more because IIRC you are in the Lehigh Valley and the market matters, so I think you could get close to $1K if the saw is totally pristine.
AgGEM sold his griz TS a while back, you might want to PM him; he's not too far away from you in Hunterdon County

If I was in the market for a new saw, there's no way I'd pay 80% of a new saw ($1000) for a used saw. I'd want the warranty and know that there aren't any hidden issues.
I'd list it at $800 and hope to find a buyer. You drove it off the lot.

Math is not my strong suit, but on sale its $1400 shipped, at $1k that's about 70% off retail, and if the saw is indeed pristine, I don't think that's out of the ballpark in eastern PA.
RE: advice needed - DaveParkis - 11-02-2016
Around here, 2/3 of cost is a fair deal. Also, I said I would "start" at $1000. When you're selling tools, it's a whole lot easier to go lower than higher.

If it has a riving knife maybe we should talk. Pm me and we'll see what we can do.
