due to the weight ( shipping / freight ), you will have best luck selling them locally.
hit fleabayand craigslist and local for sale sights to see what your local market will put out for them.

I bought a set of ugly but good front weights for $100 a couple of months ago and thought they were a good buy. I"d have had to think about it if they had been $200. For a complete set of heavy rear weights (centers, studs, bolts)that looked good - $500 I would snap up without thought. $600 I would have to see in person, $700 I"d pass. Wheel weights are so much better than CACL loaded tires in the long term that the prices are more reasonable than they first appear - BUT - it requires that your buyer knows that. |

Another advantage to cast iron vs fluid is you can always sell the cast seperately or easily transfer it to a different tractor.
I have a set of 3 pc inner weights on my mowing tractor that I have switched from one tractor to another 4 or 5 times as I traded up or sideways to different tractors. I'll sell you my tractor but not my weights.
Try that with fluid.
My pal Kenny and I had two barrels of CaCl that I advertised for 6 months on craigslist for FREE before someone would come and take it. And we lost two nice plastic drums in the process.
Pie weight prices do depend somewhat on whether they are the light 30 lb or heavy 40+ lb size but I think your prices are right in the zone.
I'm afraid I don't know what front weights are worth.  |

Most COMPLETE but not properly refinished sets of Ford segment (pie) weights that I have seen sell recently have sold between $450 - $650 but I did see a complete set of heavy AG weights sell on ebay over the weekend for $375.00.
Light AG sets usually sell for nearly as much as heavy AG sets because they are a bit less common and will work with Ford PA rims.
Prices decline rapidly if anything is missing, especially lug stud extenders.

I'd like to get a set of front wheel weights, would come in handy when using my lift boom. How much do the front wheel weights weigh? |

The wheel mounted front weights were sold in both light (approx. 70 lbs./wheel) and heavy (approx. 100 lbs./wheel).

Was wondering if you figured out what pie weights you have. I would be interested in the lighter 35# set if that"s what you have. Let me know. E-mail is open. Don, NW Pa. |
