29ltr engel

Hi Sounds like my old 29l engle i picked it up of the side of the road on a council clean up about 12 month ago.
Brought a new 12v lead for it $35, and cleaned it ,and sold it on ebay for $325.
$250 is an average price for a 25 +\- year old working engle.

while not being a bargain, if it is running well, it's a fair price assuming it comes with leads etc.

All old engels make noise. ;-)

I bought my 29 litre Engel second hand in 1978, it still goes strong and it rattles. The rattles have been there forever with no effect.

In about 1978 I paid $250 for one of them brand spanking new.
The compressor has rattled on it's mounts since probably 1975. To this day the beer out of it tastes just as good and is just as cold as it was in 1978.

Really, it's like anything on this planet. The fair price is what someone will pay. Maybe discuss it with your mate. Tell him what concerns you and get him to tell you why he thinks it's worth $250.

G'day,

if the seal was in good nick, no cracks inside etc. and you have tested it successfully on freeze, I would have no probs with that price, but would offer $200 :) I guess he's selling it because he doesn't use it?

Sometimes they might not get a bid on ebay if the seller is in some way out place and goods are pick up only.

these are good fridges mate, proven.

I also bought one the same 4 years ago $200.00
lasted 2 years

From memory engeland in Perth wanted $600.00 to repair it
got $100.00 trade in on a new one

Cheers

Is he a friend or someone you just happen to know?

As someone has stated the new price was approx $250 30 years ago.

he is my father inlaws mate and think i might leave it would rather a bigger one and really like the trailblazer ones, if he really starts to want to get rid of it might give him 200 but dont know just been offered first go of a off road box trailerand i need that more. thanks fo all your posts... cheers
