What's a Zip worth?

[PA Dan]

Talking to someone that has this for sale. They say make an offer. They say it runs and has a 16" bar on it. Trying to figure out what to offer?

 

[Chris Zautner]

$40-80 is what I would give.

I just picked one up from a local auction a few weeks ago for him, he seems to know the value of these. From what I remember him telling me a few weeks back I think Chris is spot on.

It may be worth the upper end of that range if it truly is a running saw.

Pictures aren't loading for some reason...but unless its minty, $75-80 is tops. Cool old saws, yes...but only to someone who wants an ancient antique saw.

 

[Jimmy in NC]

Ok pictures loaded...may go 100 if I really wanted one...its real complete. What carburetor and chain pitch are on it really affect value.

 

[PA Dan]

Thanks guys I'll think about if I really want it and then throw an offer and see what he thinks.

Zip....

(Someone had to say it)

That is what it is worth to me. I feel fortunate to have unloaded all my Zips, Wizes and E-Z 6's.

My wife would surely hold it against me, so I would never own such a thing....I guess you could dye it to match your other saw?
