I gonna post these until i'm sick of doing so, probably take 20-30 minutes!

First up in the, 'needs some TLC' catagory, weighing in at $25...

Washer - Whirlpool Calypso
The washer can be turned on, set, and started but water does not flow properly. It needs a new pump. It strains and makes a noise but it's rather easy to fix.
The great thing about this washer is that it is an High Efficiency machine and uses far less water than conventional washers I have links for where to find an inexpensive pump (less than $30), parts list,
how the washer works, and troubleshooting guide.
I was wanting $50, I am asking $25 because I need the room in my storage.

This ones broke too, but will set you back $40.

Ad copy:

This is a newer Whirlpool, Calypso, washer. It has digital controls. It fills with water. It agitates but will not go more than a few minutes of a cycle. We don't have any paperwork for it and don't know how to fix it.
You will need to lift and haul. [this post was last edited: 10/16/2015-21:08]

Whoa Nelly, a working machine!
Apparently because it was recently repaired..

Ad copy:

Bright white Whirlpool Calypso top loading washer with many features! All options work!
Check photos for all options!!

Brand new pump installed last year! Tub could use adjustment... Large loads get off balance so sometimes it makes a squeaking noise towards end of cycle.

The first set...wait for it:

"The washer needs a new drain pump which is a $35 fix"

first of all, its a KQ1, meaning the boards will need to be replaced.....

second, the link shows pumps as NLA

and the link for the 27 dollar pump is NOT for this machine....

but not too bad on pricing for anyone wanting to dig into one of these machines...

It's a pewter pair in the Land of Clev..
And there it is, the detail i was waiting for:

"Dryer needs a minor part --- already looked at by repair person."

Another Calypso another story. May want to sharpen the sales pitch for that price...

Ad Copy:

Bought this washer from a jerk who said it was working. Well its not something is wrong with the switch board and i dont have the time or patience for someone else to come fix it. It worked great for a while and now nothing. This is probly good for someone who fixes washers or knows a thing or two about them. Text or email for other questions or pics.

the Pewter and Charcoal sets were a stand out set....

but amazing from people who have broken machines, and yet are asking one heck of a price....
