I'm thinking about unloading my Alternator, but don't know how to price it ?

I have a 190 AMP Alternator(US Generators), that is a direct bolt-in for my 92 305...its about 8 months old, i was gonna drop in a mega loud system, but decided to go with speed rather than bumps...

anyways, it cost me like $450 brand new, ive never ran it hard(only had a 80 watt Bazooka tube the whole time ), and i dont know how stuff like this depreciates in value...

Im assuming since its near new, and ive never ran it hard, i should be able to get a decent amount of money out of it ? or am i on crack?

Its kind of hard trying to sell used electrical equipment. Espically if you don't offer a warranty. But If you really want to get rid of it name your price and see if any one goes for it. Who knows you might get lucky. Just my .02

Beast is right. Used alternators are a very, very tough thing to sell.

If you're willing to take a major hit and sell it for $150, let me know.
