FREE Philco Stove - Eastern Shore, MD

Seller states the oven does not work and then suggests scrapping it.  It looks to be fairly clean and the price is great.  Ugh.

Here's the missing link

still available before it's scrapped ?

Thank you!  In my excitement, I apparently overlooked the key component.  I've also shot an email to the seller to see if it's still available.  If it is, I may snag it to save it.  It looks to be in really nice shape.

I wonder if he has the two knobs for the burner - looks nice, but no inside shot; hope there's not a dinner in there, left over from 1963.

Looks like they're sitting on the stovetop in the picture.

You and others are training me to look at these photos closer - right, Jason, those look like them...don't you wonder why people don't dress their appliance before taking pictures?

 

[bluejay]

I don't understand why they left them there either. At least this one looks relatively clean. I love when a seller shows some skeevy, presumably infested appliance and puts in the ad 'needs a good cleaning.' Yeah, no kidding. Why don't you do that if you expect people to buy the appliance you're trying to unload? Sheesh.

 

[ovrphil]

yeah, here's my kid, needs a good cleaning after he/she was in the mud - could you work on it and pay me if you don't mind?

sure, are the knobs stripped, too?

 

[bluejay]

Phil that cracked me up. It's way too true though. I would never buy a child though. WAY too much work...

 

[ovrphil]

I was adopted. I can vouch for that - way too much work.

 

[bluejay]

When I say way too much work, I should clarify. I can barely keep my houseplants alive. I know they like water and light, but watering on a regular basis seems to trip me up.

I suspect this may have gone to scrappers, as I haven't received a reply...

 

[ovrphil]

Some people feed the metal crunchers like overwatering a plant. I gotcha.
