prentiss vise value

[porthos]

i have a prentiss vise mod 515-525 bulldog, 4.5 inch jaws (the jaws are perfect) . i have a guy that is interested in it; but i don't want to give it away. the prices for these vises are all over the place. any idea what i should ask?? and as a tutorial, what do the mod. numbers on these vises generally mean??

$150. The numbers are for the fixed base or swivel model. They usually put both numbers on all the vises. Probably to reduce inventory. Also you can check ebay for sold prices and check you local craigslist and facebook marketplace to see what else is available at the moment.
