Title: Pepsi Progress price check Post by: RustyGold on March 02, 2015, 09:02:04 pm I was buying some Coke bottles from a guy last fall and he had this in his shed. Needless to say it went home with me. I am going to sell it but I really don't know anything about these coolers. I have checked ebay completed auctions, but there seems to be some slight variations among these old Pepsi coolers. I want to make sure I'm comparing apples to apples. What would the price range be on this one?
Title: Re: Pepsi Progress price check Post by: tkaz on March 02, 2015, 11:12:41 pm I have a couple of them, one I bought a few years back for $90 without the tray and one was $140 with. Yours looks pretty straight with no rust issues, I would price it over $150 and see what happens. I always put stuff on Ebay with a high price for the first listing or two to see if there's any bites, maybe start over $200?
Title: Re: Pepsi Progress price check Post by: Eric on March 02, 2015, 11:39:48 pm Get some elbow grease on it and take good pictures.. it looks pretty straight... how is the inside... Comparing it to the ones sold on ebay it could be in the 200-250 range
But give it a good cleaning... a lot of the light, little surface rust and dirt/scratches will clean up... It would look a lot better shined up... Good Luck. Title: Re: Pepsi Progress price check Post by: Bigfoot on March 03, 2015, 01:22:15 pm If you rub too hard u will take the paint off.
That's in what I have coined "typical flea market condition." Maybe just a tad better. Title: Re: Pepsi Progress price check Post by: RustyGold on March 03, 2015, 05:08:04 pm Thanks for the input. The inside looks just like the bottom. Solid. I will try to clean it up a little, but i'm going to move this one along fairy fast. Building a new room in the basement and I'm in cleanout mode at the moment. Has anyone shipped one of these?
Title: Re: Pepsi Progress price check Post by: Slapshot42 on March 04, 2015, 12:08:02 am It's a picnic cooler is the really much room for a profit? I made the mistake of owning these and trying to re-sell they are a tough sell at more than $200. Figure the average Joe is typically going to sell one for around $100 so for a $100.00 profit you might as well keep it!
Just keep and enjoy it! IMO Title: Re: Pepsi Progress price check Post by: GreenMo on March 04, 2015, 10:20:43 am Turning a profit is nearly impossible... with shipping expenses and all.
