So I've decided to sell my current 4 post lift to buy one that lifts higher.  I have a typical hobby lift made by Direct Lifts, 8000lb capacity.  Comes with the castors to move it around, drip trays, jack stand tray and I just bought a bridge jack for it.   So literally every accessory comes with the lift, motor was replaced a few years ago, I repainted the decks as well.

New the lift goes for $2000-2300, the bridge jack is another $600.  So maybe $2500-3000 new. 

What do you guys think is a fair price to ask for it?  $1500?  $2000?

Well, it doesn't matter what *we* think; it depends what the buyer thinks. That said, if it's not too old and is in good condition, I'd say 50 - 65% of new.

Ok, so $1500 with the bridge jack and all the accessories.  That's what I was thinking as well.  Just gotta get the suspension in the M3 today so I can back it off the lift.  Then I'll take pics of it and post it for sale...

Oh, wait, if you're local, it's only worth about $50...

On Craigslist it’s worth a gun with the serials filed off and half a crack rock
