GE electric stove, 10 years old, what are my offers?

[blackstone]

Model JBS550M2WW.
Serial AT2 026940.

I just got this stove from a friend of my brother; looks clean enough to be in good working order, but I don't have 220v to test it. Offering it first to anyone here. If no takers, then Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace.

Stock image; I could provide actual photos.

I'm thinking $20, as-is, how-is, where-is.

You are very generous and it is probably a good stove for someone who needs one, but I look at that and look at the beautiful appliances in our collections and just can't believe this is what we've come to or descended to.

GE Smooth Top Electric range

Hi Fred, Thats a very good range, it will out cook so called professional gas ranges costing over $4000.

 

You probably should ask at least $100 for it or no one will think it is any good.

John,

I know that $20 sounds cheap, but most people responding to CL or FB ads are also cheap. I'll advertise for maybe $50, but settle for $20. Unfortunately.

Fred, I'd list that on FB Mrkt at 150 OBO and would bottom out at 100 bucks. Locally that seems to be the sweet spot for a used range/stove.

My wife had a similar GE range in her apartment when we were dating - one of the best ranges I've used.

Is the model perhaps JBS55DM2WW?  JBS550M2WW doesn't seem to search.

 

[blackstone]

You are correct, sir.

The model number is JBS55DM2WW.

When I list this stove, are there any special features that I should emphasize? I need a good reply to whoever says, "But, it's a 10-year-old stove."

"GE is known for making good cooking appliances."

"No repairs for the duration." (assuming that's true)

Thanks to John & Ben

I took your advice, and listed the stove at $125. Sold in one day, with no haggling on the price.

Nice work, Fred!
