Well, as some of you know, i have a pole transformer. It is 7620 volts, so perhaps not preferred. But it is 50kw, and if possible i would like 500 bucks for it.
Does this sound reasonable? That would be 100USD per 10kw. The major problems are the fact that it is large and weighs 629 pounds, so it cannot be shipped, and i am not sure how many people would buy something from a 15 year old that they do not know.

I wouldn't have any trouble buying off of a 15 Year old but I think $500 may be too steep, I was offered a .5MVA Transformer for NZ$2000 (About US$900) but I have no real idea how much they are worth beyond that.

Yes, i have been told this many times. But if people can sell 10kw pigs for 300 dollars, why should 5 times the power and only 2/3 the price more be too much?

Because hardly anyone uses it to there full potential. Who is going to run 50kW through it?
I have seen quite a few people use that much. I know Kolas could power it with about 30kw, and that person from Oklahoma with the 20 something foot sparks used 55KW. And Anon01 could power it with a fair amount of power (not saying that they should buy it, i just mean some people CAN power the beast up).

How much is pig worth?
