Seems like a deal if I was Warren Buffet and going camping. But I'm not! What are they thinking? Maybe they fat fingered the decimal point.

:thinking: I was thinking more along the lines of "$@!* NUTS" . Granted it is a rare stove and in good shape.

Its not even really rare.. Its in nice shape tho. Sears sold them, they probably ordered a few thousand of them at the time. Ted Williams was a popular guy, had outboard motors, fishing tackle and other outdoorsy stuff.
In my world its maybe a $40 stove..

I would half way expect it to be delivered personally, with it handcuffed to the delivery person's wrist.

Wolffarmer... for that kind of money, I'd expect a little more than handcuffed delivery... but this is a family friendly forum, no?

I'm also keeping an eye on this one:

Looks like a Coleman 200 model, no?
My initial reaction, regarding tank not holding pressure, is bad seal on the filler cap.

Advice? Since acquiring my Sears (228) lantern, I've developed a bit of an obsession with Coleman/Sears camping stuff. Price seems good at the moment.

I would worry more about the rust on the sides. It looks deep and the bottom may be bad. I see there are not photos of the bottom.

That is a good price so far. The top 1/2 is a 200A The tank is a 220/228.
