I'd pay $25, maybe $30, for that Stanley router plane:
http://www.ottoauctioneering.com/31bd640b0.jpg I want one. One
sold on Ebay for $29, recently... I bid on it and lost. It was dirty
and not as nice looking as the one in your link. There was a vintage
one (it looked very used, also) about 6 months ago, sold for $41. I
bid on it and lost that one, also. There's one listed on Ebay now,
price $22 (...with pending bids?).

thanks for the reply. yes, i already looked up the delta jointer (319)
and the disk/belt sander (419) and the shop fox at (300). I'll be
looking to bid on all three of these for less than half (or so). just
wanted to make sure that one of those planes were not worth a million or
something. I don't collect or use planes, so it would be solely for
resale if i bought one.
thanks again

You don't use planes? How do you trim something down?
What do you do when it's too small for a machine?
When you only need to take off a little?
Or when the board or top is way to big for a machine?
Machines leave marks that need to be removed. The planer and jointer
will leave slight scallops that need to be removed. You can sand, but a
plane leaves the wood so crisp. When you put certain finishes on the
chatoyance is so cool... you can look from one place and the wood looks
one way, move around and it flip flops... awesome. Sandpaper can't get
that same look, but a plane gets that look.

Cool! Keep a few and sell/trade the rest to get more types. Old

Extreme value?
I don't know about extreme value.
The Stanley router plane looks in good shape don't know the price
There is a block plane third over from the left in pic of block planes.
Looks like a knuckle plane, if it's in good shape it would be a good buy
at under 30. I paid $8 for 3 planes at a garage sale. (GLOAT)
There appears to be a lie nielsen back saw in the mix. See back saws
with brass back.
Looks like a Veritas bevel gauge..
Also some Shinwa bevel Gauges, near the bench pups
Shopfox mortising machine.
That Ryobi spindle sander if it can be had for $25 would be a great
deal. BTW Home Depot had it on sale for $69 before they stopped carrying
it. So that should help gauge pricing.
The hand planes are tough to gauge without picking them up and looking
at them. Seems like there are some nice planes there. I see at the back
of the smoothers some that look in good shape. But hard to tell.
Do you need a jack, or jointer?

Don't buy planes to resell. If you can get somebody to pay you to cart
them off that's another story, but if you're planning on buying them and
selling at a profit it's not likely to happen.

i understand. I bought a whole deep box of 78 records thinking that
direction. So far, i've sold none. Fortunately, the whole box of
about 60 of them only cost me $12.

ACTUALLY, i must re-qualify that statement. My woodworking endeavors
are in their infancy. I recently DID buy a new inexpensive plane, as i
had to custom fit an old door into a house it didn't come out of. I
marveled at how easy it actually did the job. I hadn't been around a
plane since i was a kid and saw the grandparent generation use them.
(I'm 54 now). I probably will end up using them obviously if i continue
this hobby. Right now, my projects include a simple bench for my wife's
sewing table, and i just finished creating and installing 11 stair
treads that i created by jointing red oak that i power planed from the
rough. I'm quite impressed with my work on these. <G> I'll probably
buy a few of the ones you all mentioned, as long as the crowd doesn't
think they are gold.

I agree with "tired", I don't know that any of those planes are going to be
worth a bucket load of money. If you want to buy some to turn over for a
profit, your best bet would be any of the Bedrock (600 series) models. Barring
that, within the Bailey line I would see if the 4-1/2, 5-1/4, 5-1/2, and 8
models are in good shape; those tend to be harder to find and worth a bit more
(but not much). Look for the models with three patent dates on the sole
between the frog and the tote, and "V" shaped logos on the blade. And try to
snag that block plane with the brightly plated "knuckle" cap mentioned by
"tired", as visible in this picture:
http://www.ottoauctioneering.com/31b7640b0.jpg That's a keeper.
I personally would be buying them to USE, not resell, and I don't know why any
woodworker wouldn't want to have at least a few of those on hand for general
purpose use. If you're in that boat at all, look for a 60-1/2 block plane (I
think I see at least one in this photo:
http://www.ottoauctioneering.com/31b9640b0.jpg); I guarantee that you will find
a use for it no matter who you are. If you pick up any of the Bailey models
(and ANY of them will be useful) look for the models that have the frog
adjustment screw (the screw that protrudes from the back of the frog bed, as
visible in this picture: http://www.ottoauctioneering.com/31cb640b0.jpg); these
will usually have a 1910 patent date on the sole. Also try to make sure that
you're buying a plane that has plenty of meat left on the blade.
Looks like they have a whole pile of Rosewood totes and knobs
(http://www.ottoauctioneering.com/318a640b0.jpg). See if you can snag the
whole lot for a good price. You shouldn't have any trouble turning those over
on eBay if they're in good shape.
Hope this helps.

I got about a dozen real nice ones from an old friend who just got too old.
I thought I had a big score, then looked on ebay. Most are worth less than
$10. But still better at $10 at a yard sale than for what you get for what
you pay nowadays. Still, there are some "home runs" out there. I'd just
study up on ebay and make a pocket list, or take the laptop with the cell or
satellite converter so you can look them up. A "home run" is scoring a
valuable item cheap.
