Within the past two weeks I have sold 3 single-headed jadeite, Model 30 (commercial grade) Hamilton Beach mixers. All were in perfect working order, but two had many chips. The mint condition one sold for $250., and the other two sold for $200. and $175 dollars respectively. The three-headed mixers are entirely different. (Incidentally, I have a bunch of stainless cups that fit them). Anyway, they should bring more, but rarely exceed $300. The reason is: what do you do with a three-headed mixer unless you have a soda fountain? In the kitchen, they take up too much room, and there is rarely a call at home for three milkshakes at a time. Few people are investing in a retro soda fountain as the NSF (National Safety Foundation) and DHEC make you jump through hoops in order for them to approve the store. Anyway, if yours is in mint condition, and runs perfectly on all three heads, you should not sell it for under $350. The heck with the market, and, unless you need to sell it, you will have a kitchen conversation piece for many, many years. Good luck if you decide to sell. I would definitely be interested in seeing it, at least. Again, thank you.<br /> Bill McNelis,<br /> Another Time</p> Margie:
