Title: Pepsi Progress value
Post by: Larry on July 21, 2014, 06:27:50 pm
How much is this cooler worth?  I put it on Ebay and just threw a value on it.  I have an offer of $150.00 on it.  Should I take it?

Sorry no time to load pics, leaving work now.

$150 seems low based on what I see people typically asking for on these coolers.  Looks to be in really nice condition.

Don't sell that for less than $225. It's too nice!

It was my wifes aunts.  She bought it new and used it for awhile and then it went on a shelf.  When she was moving out I saw it and she asked me if I wanted it.  I took the cooler and a Beatle tray.  I still have both but I don't need either.  I'm trying to dump some odds and ends.  Thanks.

That's a very nice condition cooler, I own a couple right now that aren't close to that condition.  It'll sell for full price, just give it some time...the one thing I'd add to the listing is a pic of the bottom, based on the rest I'd presume it's in great shape, but that's a big selling point to me, kind of like seeing the belt-line rust on older machines.

Thanks for the advice.  I'll add a picture of the bottom.

I keep getting nickle and dime offers.  So I took the Make offer off.  If it don't sell, no biggie.  I'll slide it under a machine.  I added the bottom picture and it looks pretty nice as far a s rust.

That's a harder model to find in that condition... If it doesn't sell keep it. great cooler.... good luck!

       Because it is in such nice original condition and the fact that it's history is through your wife's family,
makes me think it could only be to your advantage to display it in your collection.......if you know what I mean?  :Oo:
