3x10 dominion and grim value???????

[patmaloney]

Can anyone give me a ballpark figure on the value of a 3x10 dominion and grim evaporator. The pans were made in 1988 so lead soldered. They are in good shape. Includes a wood fired arch and hoods. I am considering purchasing this setup from a friend. I do not know what it would be worth. Am I crazy for buying this rather than newer welded pans? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Do you sell any bulk syrup? It is my understanding that In a few years bulk buyers will not be buying syrup made in lead soldered pans.

If the whole thing is 1988 vintage and its all in decent shape, I'd guess around $2500 to $3000 range. Its true they're going to be phased out in a few years but it'll get you started for not much money.
