Hey everyone,
I have a guy bringing me two side-shift transmissions. Prices were not discussed.
What a fair price between fellow teeners?

125-250 for core. more if documented. My opinion...
Agreed, I just asked DrEvil the same and he said $225ish.

Got a find a time to schedule the pickup, Mark. I apologize if I'm dragging my feet. Just pretty busy work/family right now.

No prob at all. We'll find time to catch up.
The plentiful use of orange RTV would drop the value down into the realm of scrap prices for me.

Good core, $150 is fair.

I agree.
RTV of any color is an alarming.
Speaks volumes about the re-builder.
RTV = scrap value, I agree.
Price is a severely regional thing. In CA I can get cores all day long at $100-150 as they are plentiful. $75 for tail shift as they are typically roached. On the east coast, prices vary based on planetary allignment, zip code, political leaning, tea leaves, and often chicken bones. North and south are the big determinant. Many/most of the FL cores I have seen were shit with roached internals and salt damage. But they were cheap most of the time Cores from the rust belt tend to be corroded pretty bad and cheap, but good ones command more money with people trying to get $300-400 for a side shifter of unknown provenance.
Basically, get what you can/pay what you are willing. In the end, you will be in a small ball park of cost unless someone really screws you over.
