I've visited ....
Antique Appliances in Clayton, GA. They have a big inventory of unrestored appliances. You can buy these outright without restoration. I asked about a few and the prices were mind blowing. Then they get into the speel of who's going to restore it and try to sell you on their services. I get their whole business model and they stay very busy, more power to them ....... but way out of most people's reasonable price league. If I had a priceless appliance needing restoration and money wasn't an object then they would be a good choice with a beautiful outcome.
As for people who think grandma's old stove can pay the mortgage and they google for value, the result always lands them on Antique Appliances' website and their crazy prices. "Oh look honey, grandmother's stove is worth $6k!"
