    Appliance Power Cords - More than Scrap Value?????

    Does anyone sell their appliance power cords for more than scrap value???? I've got a lot of these. Most are from 240 volt dryers and ovens. I also have 4 that were on 3-phase ice cream / yogurt machines.

    They are going for less than $10 on ebay. If that is worth your time then that could be an avenue for you. I dont list usually unless item is worth $20 or more.

    I save my for flea market. I'm not usually patient enough not to scrap stuff, but these are too easy. One guy usually buys all I have for around $7 each. Mine are dryer and oven only.

    On the dryer an oven...good call. Those are always in demand, I traded two sticks of low ram when I needed to change the cord on a dryer I got an hooked up.

    An I'm always being asked for one or the other but I don't get enough of them.

    An is the flea market good, or just a small town thing? I miss the big old ones like out west. SC is a lot closer then Cali. lol
