We have a 1950's General Electric stove.. model # IJ408N ... wondering if anyone could give me an idea how much it might be worth??? Called GE and they want it back bad.. thinking maybe someone else might want it more.. can anyone help?

Maybe they want it back because there was a recall on it years ago and are worried someone is still using it?  Just a thought.  Otherwise, if they want it back, their pockets are deeper than most private individuals, and may offer you more with less hassle.

Guess I am confused why GE would want it back bad.

When I google GE 1950 stove, plenty of them pop up!!!  Do agree about the recall and it needs to be checked for any problems with it...because of liability for you!

The ones in working order are for sale in ranges of $300 - $500....but there are quite a few and not moving well.

Or, maybe they want it back because it works -too- well... Maybe it's a tank of a machine, and it'll never die, leaving them out the cash you'd spend to replace a worse-made one that they turn out nowadays?  ;D
