Title: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: Kaleid20 on May 07, 2012, 09:30:00 am Guys, what do you think of this one here? I know the WD-5 is one of the more desirable coolers because of its small size, but am having trouble pinpointing a true value. Remember these are alot harder to come by in my neck of the woods. (Midwest\South)

BC Title: Re: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: Kaleid20 on May 10, 2012, 07:45:38 am Im in Houston and it's in St Louis. The guy told me he'd take $500 for it...i just have to take shipping into account. So therefore, haven't pulled the trigger.....yet.
Title: Re: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: Kilroy on May 10, 2012, 08:13:42 am figure 300 -400 to ship if you use NAVL.
Title: Re: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: collecture on May 10, 2012, 08:34:53 am He says it does not cool. Considering that I can see a few other machines around it, I would tend to believe him.
$500 + not cooling + shipping = "pass" in my book. You could maybe ask a few more questions about the cooling system and why he says it does not work, but I can't think of anything he could say to convince me it works. My six cents... Title: Re: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: Kaleid20 on May 10, 2012, 09:25:50 am Spoke with him this morning. It turns on and runs, but doesn't cool. He said the cable also will need to be replaced. I think I can get this shipped down to Houston from STL on Uship for around $200. He's willing to hold it for as long as I need, love sellers like that. He's gonna hold it for me today while I mull it over.
Title: Re: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: Slapshot42 on May 10, 2012, 09:30:48 am Ive heard that line before, I will hold it for you! I wouldnt wait too long, money talks especially to someone that has other machines, or just needing the cash flow.
Best of luck, keep us posted... Title: Re: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: Kaleid20 on May 10, 2012, 10:58:37 pm Bought it....$500. I think this is one Ill keep since they go so well inside. Eric will be glad too, since he just scored another $900 on a compressor replacement.
Title: Re: Westinghouse Wd-5 value Post by: Roadman on May 12, 2012, 08:13:06 am BC is restoring a WD-5 if anyone needs one that has been restored. It will look very nice. I was supposed to get it but I ended up with a WD5 from Curtis (it's a long story , it worked out for BC and me though).
