    Hi mate,

    If all in good condition and full working order I would estimate around 40%-50% of the new RRP could be achievable. Used valves and pumps can be temperamental in performance after being resited, so these are likely to be towards the lower end and maybe lower...

    Cetus and Nexus usually sell very well, so may get slightly more than 50% if there are not many others available.

    Dont take this as for definite though as i only have experience in selling new. I would research e bay as a decent guide.

    Cheers

    Dont take this as for definite though as i only have extensive experience in selling new. I would recommend researching e bay as a decent guide and advertising on here first to avoid e bay fees and offer a fellow member a bargain on some decent equipment.

    Cheers

    I think Gaz is spot on there. People often over-price second hand stuff and others see what they’ve advertised it for and assume that’s the going rate. At the end of the day things are only ever worth what someone’s prepared to pay for them.

    Second hand pumps and air pumps can be tricky because the buyer gets no guarantee and they have a lifespan. Second hand electrical appliances in general are a big gamble and not for everyone.

    Good luck with your sale. If you had storage space for it you could possibly get a higher price for it, since now is the off-season for pond building and Christmas is coming.
