I stopped in a used appliance store yesterday and sitting under two microwaves was an older Speed Queen washer. I assume the 1980's because it has the perforated tub and the control panel looks "very 80's". I was thinking of possibly adding it to my "collection" but they want $130 for it. Is that a reasonable price? I will stop by again on my way home today and try to get some photos of it. Thanks! |

Look to see if it has been there a while. You may offer them $75 for it and see if they take it. Are they offering any type of 10 day warranty? |

I've seen a few of these apear on Ebay. It's possible it could be from the mid to late 80's. |

I agree. This model type was around from about 1983 to 1988 or so. Not as fun to watch as the older solid tubs, but that agitator does move clothes around vigorously. Have a good one, James |
