Howdy All!

I have a question (about selling my 16-CL)

I have an Elmo 16-CL and it's in great shape. Engine is strong, bulb is bright and the sound is amazing. Last week I replaced all the pinch rollers so they are brand new as well.

I also have a few sound films,

Russion Rhapsody (WB Cartoon)
An episode of Speed Racer (B/W)
Some 25 minute High School film about nutrition
and a short Mother Goose cartoon.

So heres my question....

If i put this on ebay is $200.00 a fair starting bid? The new pinch rollers themselves were around a $110.00.

The prices on ebay really vary, but some have been listed for as much as $400.00!

Any input would help!

Thanks

On Ebay do a search for "Elmo 16-CL projector". You'll see what people are asking for them. Then find "Completed listings" on the left sidebar and click on that. You'll see the ones that sold and their price will be in green. You'll also see those that didn't sell and the asking starting price will be in red. I believe you will not have much luck selling it if you start at $200.00, based on the prices seen on Ebay.

Agreed. I'm debating if it's even worth selling. Think I'll just hang on to it. It's a fantastic projector in great shape with brand new pinch rollers to boot!

Saw you're from Burnsville, I grew up in Bloomington!
