I'm trying to establish the value of the following items: An Evenheat super XL kiln, interior 29"X30", bought new in 1981 used for bisque firing about 800 times. It has the standard off/on switches for each element and a kilnsetter with timer.
A CXC brent wheel purchased new in 2000.
A brent kick wheel purchased used in 1982 for $200.
2000 used fire brick in fair to good condition meaning they are standard size about 1/4 identified as Mexico or AP Green.
Five custom made metal drying racks on wheels to accomodate 2 12X36 ware boards.
22 12X24x1 used clay shelves most puchased in 1984 and fired about 430 times no cracks very little warpage.
Approximately 50 various sized posts for the shelves.
The bricks are the hardest thing to value but any help for any of these things would be greatly appreciated!

Dennis & Crew,
A lot will depend on how you plan to move these materials. It seems that
most of this stuff has seen some use except for the CXC. I'd expects to pay
some bucks for that cause I think they go for about $1500 now/new.

Not more than $.50/brick switches included. When I got ahold of the shell
that I used for the Hobalectric, and I don't recall what/if I paid for it,
I traded the electronics to a kiln repairman near Kalamazoo for a pyrometer.

What ya think, folks, 800 bucks?

$20.

I think there were 456 standard high heat duty (unbranded) on the palett I
baught new from Asley through Miller's in Iron Mountain for $1.05 ea. I
saved $40. picking them up in 3 1/2 trips mainly cause their double tandom
truck with other orders would have had a hard time getting out of Camp
Hayes Road. ( Don't forget to buy two brickies clamps) The Mexico's are
high heat duty so again no more than $.50 ea., but more like $.25. If the
AP Green's are "standards" they are low heat duty and I wouldn't give more
than $.10 ea. They can handle 2000F but not if you wood fire, the ash will
glaze them over and eventually spall.

Look what they cost in a Granger catalog and give 25%
>22 12X24x1 used clay shelves most puchased in 1984 and fired about 430

A buck a piece ?

$.10 ea.

Ya, hay, no problem dude. I wouldn't/can't give a whole for that
especially if you gotta carry it. I'd be more inclined "to haul that junk"
away if they gave me the wheel. Why don't ya trade them a dinner set or a
couple of pots.
Stay in there!
