Trenton what's it worth

[Concrete guy]

I believe it's a 150# Trenton and wondering what it's worth.  

[Judson Yaggy]

if it's perfect $8 per # in Alaska, $3 per pound in New England or upper mid west.  That one's pretty good but not perfect, plus you don't say where you are so it's worth what the first guy with cash in hand will pay.

In Colorado. I appreciate the info. You think $450 is too cheap. Again thank you

Got to know the weight!  I've see "abouts" that were off by a factor of 2! if it's close to what you believe you can weigh it on a bathroom scale---or down at a feed store.

How long do you want to be holding it waiting for someone that wants to pay top price for it?

We don't want to wait.

we've had it for quite a while

I'm in south central missouri and just bought a 151# Trenton for more than that in very nice shape and do not regret it AT ALL. Considering where you are that's a steal.

If it has good rebound, less than a week around here at $450 (for 150#). At $600 could last a month or more, depending on who wants one.

I love Trentons but thats too much in my opinion. I bought a 100# welded top end trenton for $100. 95+% rebound. may have gone $200 but thats it. but thats also just me and in PA.

I second this for opinion for Washington.  4 bucks a pound and it'll sit anywhere from an hour to a year depending on how desperate someone is who is anvil shopping.  3 bucks a pound will generate some serious interest and it'll go for sure in short order.  It's a good size--not so large that people get scared about handling but not so small that people hesitate and wait for bigger.

Middlin weight anvils are not that common around this area.  Either they are bigger ones from lumber mills (that go for superior dollars) or smaller farrier anvils as a rough trend.  Just mentioning that because market affects pricing a lot.

$450 is a good price, if it were here in NM it would last about 30 minutes on Craigslist.

Denver seems to be in about the same price range. At $600 it might take a bit longer.

Thanks!  The weight is stamped on the left side.  112 pounds?

[ThomasPowers]

Weight is on the left looks to be 112 pounds NOT 150!  so $4 a pound not $3

Your price per pound just went up by 33%

Thanks everyone!
