Used angle grinders in New York typically sell for $27 to $160. Angle grinders are cheap, common and genuinely dangerous, so the guard is the whole story — never sell one with the guard removed, however common that is.
Selling an angle grinder in New York
Leases turn over constantly and moving day here means whole apartments emptied at once. The supply of used furniture is effectively continuous rather than seasonal, which is why prices stay reasonable even for good pieces.
Almost everything changes hands on the subway or on foot, so agree a station and a time rather than an address. For furniture, the question that decides the sale is which floor and whether there is an elevator — ask it before you agree a price, not when you arrive.
Confirm the floor and the elevator before anything else. A fifth-floor walk-up is the single commonest reason a furniture sale falls apart here, and it is nobody’s fault if it was never asked.
New York has around 8.3 million people, which means a buyer pool big enough that almost anything finds someone, and close enough together that collection is rarely the obstacle. Buffalo, Rochester and Yonkers are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in New York

Brand, disc size and power: “Bosch 115mm Angle Grinder, 900W, with Guard and Handle”. Disc diameter is the search — 115mm, 125mm and 230mm are quite different tools. Say whether the guard and side handle are present, because a grinder missing either is worth much less.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
