Nordic Track at neighbors garage sale

[IluvKingLouis]

My next door neighbor has a Nordic Track (x-country ski machine) out for sale. I just looking out the window, but I don't see pricing on any of her items. I use to use the ones at our Rec center all the time, but they got rid of them (they were very unpopular, and I think I was one of the only ones using it).

So, what do you think a fair price would be? I have no idea what they retail for.

Yes, wow....I didn't know they retailed for so much!

On Ebay they have them as low at $70 check out ebay to find used prices that match the one outside. Good luck!

It was quite exppensive when we got ours. What does she have it marked?

I don't see tags on anything, but I'll go out and poke around here in a few minutes. It's rainey and cold out, I was waiting for the weather to improve.

We bought one several years ago for about (I think) $1500. It had all the bells and whistles. We hated it. Ended up selling it for about $200 - to a friend who said they really really wanted it. They ended up not liking it, either. They sold it in a garage sale for $50. I think you can probably find LOTS of them in garage sales. I'm not sure they're worth even $50.

My DH later bought an AB Lounge2 at Sears on sale for $59 - and he picked up a couple of handweights for about $15. He uses these every day. And he walks outside a lot. I bought a used tread mill cheap that I use four to five times a week - more than I ever used the NT. So pthththt on the expensive Nordic Tracs.

They are around here for $20. They have 2 at our local mission store, they have been there for a while.
All exercise equipment is usually marked cheap unless its a like new treadmill then those are around $50. (I dont think anyone around here really exercises as I see the stuff alot! )

well I am now the proud owner of a Nordic Track. I asked them how much, and the wife shrugged and said, "I don't know, 5 or 10." Husband said $10, which I was happy to pay.

Wow - congrats! Now you'll have to be going to the Wish board to post your exercise minutes.

I just need to figure out how to squeeze it into our basements work out corner. We have a bench, some free weights, and an Eliptical machine. I find I can't do the eliptical for very long, but I used to do the Nordic Track for 30-35 minutes when the rec center had them.

Wow, we sold ours for $50 and felt like we were practically giving it away.
It was a really expensive, ugly clothes hanger though.

I wanted to really thank you all

The Budget Board rocks. Not only did you all give me some great info but y'all did it in a matter of minutes.
