So the wife want to got to some estate sales and she lured me with this one has fishing gear this one has hunting stuff. Well the all were bombs. We went to one last "Estate Sale" when we got there the place looked like Sanford and Son. My wife went to looking around to see if she could find any treasures as I wandered and tried not to be irritated, When I hear honey there is a slicer here. I go look and it is a Globe Chefmate Model GC12D. It looks to be in good shape but appeared to be left outside. We move it and the guy plugs it in and it run and runs quietly, but the food chute won't slide it is stuck. He helps me and we take the bottom off, I think even if i can't get it loose i can get a new bar.
So since it was not priced, I asked what he wanted. He said $75 because he thought it was worth about $125 and he needed the cash. I asked him for a hammer to see if i could get the chute free and he said he did not have tools. So i say I will give you $40 and he says $45 I said i will give you $45 if you give me a receipt and I can return it if the cute doesn't come unstuck. He say I will take $40 as is cash. I load it up know it was a Globe but not know the value yet. As soon as i get home I look up the model online and Find this
Globe GC12D price $1,277.00 new.
So after 3 hours i have it cleaned up i sitll need to lube the slider rod some as it its sticking and i think i need to adjust the chute as it wobbles a little but I think with some adjustment i have a great slice for under $50
