Help with this Grinder/Buffer

[sasscuba]

My father recently passed away and I'm trying to sell his tools I don't want to give them away.... can anybody give me an approximate value of this buffer grinder with stand? Thank you very much

It's a decent home shop buffer, made in China, on a stand, with some buffing wheels. Probably $200 would be absolute top dollar, depending on your market and your marketing savvy.

As is usually the case, the Chinese wildly overstate the "1 hp" when it's rated at 3/4.5 amps. Really more like 1/2hp.

On the plus side, it looks like its on a Craftsman grinder stand which would probably bring more $ than the Chinese buffer.

That buffer/grinder isn't worth much. That all alone is worth about $30 or so. There are 1/2 a dozen on CL locally now for that.

The stand is worth more than the grinder like Larry said. Maybe $100?

I would throw it up for $150 and take $125 or so.
