Powerking tractor help!

[pk81]

Alright so I've had my 1981 powerking 1614 on Craigslist for a while and I'm asking 1700 for it. I also have it on private party ads on TBN.It comes with a rototiller and front blade. The tractor has tandem trans,tire chains, and the original manuals. Am I asking to much for it? It was repainted a while back but that shouldn't affect the price should it? Any and all help would be appreciated.

I don't know if that's high or not. It's probably just going to take a while.It has to be someone that's in the market for that type tractor

Most people want a loader or mower deck with this tractor which you do not have. Also is the price $1800 FIRM as shown in one of your CL listings or is it $1700? Most repaints will always affect the value in a negative way.
In my area, MA your tractor would be worth about $1000.
Just trying to help, Ken

My dad put the first listing on Craigslist and that's why it was 1800 firm. I reposted it because I really don't have a need for it because I have 2 larger tractors and wanted to build a front end loader for one of them. I figured if I make it cheaper people would be more interested in it. Thank you guys for your input. So should I keep posting it for 1700 or should I drop it down to 1200-1400. That's about the lowest I really want to go.

How long has it been for sell ? Like I said. It's going to take someone that's interested in that type tractor . Don't take this the wrong way, but if it were $500.00 I wouldn't be intrested.If you'er not in a hurry to sell.Let it sit for sell. It's not costing you anything

I've been contemplating so selling it since last summer but put it on in last December. Mainly I don't want it to continue sitting in my shed not getting any use. Right now I am getting parts for a front end loader build hopefully and would like the extra money for that project. That's another reason why im wanting to sell it and been pushing to sell it

You might try listing it on Tractor House. It'll be easier for far off collectors to find.

You might list it on craigs list in neighboring states /areas
