What do you think I should price my MAK 1 Star at?
« on: December 04, 2017, 12:50:19 AM »

Hi everyone. I am going to be parting ways with my MAK soon once my backyard kitchen is completed with a built-in 3 Star. It’s a few years old, definitely used, but in good condition with a cover and full size extra upper rack.

I recall it being $1399 new (I think) plus $100 for the cover, which is less than a year old, and $100 for the rack. Any ideas for where I should price this thing?

Thanks

 It all comes down to demand..If it doesn't,t require any repair, has no rust and is clean, try 50% of the cost...The person buying it won't have warranty and there have probably been improvements to the pit since you bought it.

Start at $1000 and work down to $800...anything less than that I would keep it for small cooks.

I sold a 2011 1 Star last year for $800. It had a cover, side shelf, lower shelf full upper grate and 1/2 upper grate.  It didn’t take long to sell :)

Was it the one with black powder coat or silver vein?

Thanks for the tip. I’m thinking I’ll give it to a good friend of mine who’s been wanting one if I can’t sell for a price I’m happy at.
