Parker Coffee Grinder ...

Need an estimated value on a Parker Coffee Grinder # 441.
Real nice shape.
I see alot of Parker # 449 's. But, have not been able to find a #441
I do know that it does not have the orignal glass catcher.

Anyone, have info or websites i can research in ? : )
I have looked on several website with no luck

Thank you for the links : )
Not a member of worthpoint. Can anyone see in there what the Parker 441 sold for ?

 

I don't have a WorthPoint account, but did find my way to the original eBay page of King's first link.

That #441 grinder got a final bid of $122.50 on March 26, 2013.
Starting price: $9.95
There were 13 bidders fighting over it and a total of 40 bids.

That was 3 years ago, so demand and/or buyers with enough surplus cash to buy non-essentials may have changed drastically since then. It's so hard to tell when you can't find anything recent.

 

The Worthpoint link is 7 years old. Things that were selling very well in 2010 may not be selling at the same prices now.

 

I didn't even look at the date but was thinking there may be info of interest.

 

Thanks all for the info : )
It really does help!
But, I still cannot figure out why I have not been able to find a Parker # 441 anywhere for sale in several years.
I have done alot of searching.
I do not know if that means it is worth more because it is very rare; or as stated could be worth less because of the times we are in now .

 

I would say don't get too hung up on the model number. Buyers generally won't care what model this is unless they are advanced collectors. Doubt there are very few of those and the chances of having two compete for this at auction on ebay are slim. Compare to other similar grinders by Parker and others to get a general current value. I would recommend selling at auction at least the first time around just in case it takes off.
