NPC,

long story.
I ended up with this and it is BRAND NEW!!!
Its an electric Pallet Jack with dry cell power.
(made in Germany)

I thought I would try my first ever sale on Ebay, but after looking apparently none of these sell on Ebay.

Is there a market out there somewhere?
I'd sure like to sell it.
It is literally brand new and I'd like to get something out of it...

Brant looks like you have the market cornered. If you found none on ebay, then you will be the one to set the reserve. There is someone out there looking for one of those and you have the only one on ebay$$$$
If you don't like that then try craigslist.com.

cool..
thanks...

I did an ebay search and found a few in the "auctions past" type of search...

Problem is that all of those old auctions showed 0 bids.

Mine is new instead of old, which should help... but I'm guessing commercial buyers don't look on ebay.

Is there any trade mags or especially online trade mags that I could run an add in for not too much money?

Redshift, Sean,

I don't know exactly...
I mean I know what was paid for it by my father-in-law....

but I don't know what to sell it for..
Its a long, boring story but in the end he was trying to help even though it has become kinda a pain in my neck now...

I think he paid 2300 + shipping

Of course I'd love to get all of it, but I'm guessing that half price is more realistic.

I'll have to get a photo of the warning sticker later...
in the mean time let me add:

throw it in the truck and go find some industrial parks, i bet with in a tank of gas you will get some one to buy it, just take in the receipt or proof of price and paper work. there are always other places to sell it as well like your large local construction bussiness be it plumbing or electrical

ps if you sell it this way you owe me a beer if we ever meet

Why not call the dist of them and offer it to them or make flyers on your puter of it and drop them off at business in local industrial parks near you. Put a price and phone number on the flyers.

Retail price, your sale price, description, a picture. Make it a thanksgiving special. A couple hrs on the weekend and I'm sure you would have a buyer and no shipping.
