I've got a new Ken Fern wood prop as a spare and someone wants to maybe buy it. Any idea what it is worth? I bought it as part of a project a few years ago so don't know what it would have originally cost.
Cheers
Rob

It depends very much on the size and make.
Chris lodge props fetch a premiun as they are very good and he doesn't make them any more.
Ken 's props don't fetch anything like Chris' .
What they cost and what they are worth 2nd hand is not always simple , I have a four blade hoffman for a 150 lycoming that cost over £3500.Its been hanging on my garage wall for 15yrs and I don't expect its worth £250.
As with anything its only worth what some one will pay .
