Thinking of selling my medium egg with some accessories.  Can someone guide as to the going price for this size egg?

    usually half of what you paid. No warranty conveyed. Check craigslist and FB for reference for your area

    Ticonderoga looks to be a small town, so selling it through Facebook marketplace of craigslist may be slower than larger cities with more potential buyers. I would probably do a test listing of $400, and hope to sell in the range of $300. Clean it up really good before taking your pictures. Use a food grade mineral oil on every external part to make it shiny (Including the ceramic). Potential egg buyers need to believe it has been babied, even tho that doesn’t matter. Run a load or two of cheap lump through it for several hours at 550-600 to burn your old cooks off. Resist urge to go higher as you don’t want your gasket fried for no reason. If gasket is bad, get a inexpensive replacement on amazon and put it on. All of these things will help you sell closer to the high end of your market.

    Good luck with your sale @sharhamm.  If this is your only egg, hope to have you back again sometime.
