I've found old wood/coal stoves to be a real enigma. Asking prices are all across the board on Internet auctions and antique shops. I paid $495 for a mint original Estate caboose stove and have seen prices for the same model in lesser condition from $2,000 to $100. I think what's important are great pictures of your stove on Internet auctions (eBay). If it fits into someones decor, someone will buy it. One large pitfall is the weight. It's a definite plus to live in a large metro area where someone could pick it up and not pay the outlandish shipping costs.
