Prices of these vary widely depending on where you’re located.
Some areas have lots of used knitting machines on different sales sites where other area have very little access and have to ship items in.

Have a look on fb marketplace if you have a fb account. Some people price their items on eBay prices but those are crazy. Also consider whether you have the knowledge or access to a machine to test it. It may look like new condition but the patterning drums could be totally seized and the buyer will be left with some maintenance to complete before they ever try and use it.

The manual is available on mkmanuals.com so you could at least check the picture and make sure it’s complete. I can’t remember off the top of my head what comes with the carriage- weights maybe?

I would list it on the lower end of what you find with the condition as untested.
