I removed a working Norcold 1200, of which there are many in the RV world. I thought sure someone would want at least parts of it, e.g. the glass shelves, door hinges and latches, control boards, etc. NADA. The only interest came from remote locations and it was neither economic nor practical to get the parts to them. They seemed to expect that I would disassemble, pack & ship and they would pay only $5- $10 to cover costs. I wasn't looking to make a profit, but even the main control board cost more than that to ship and my level of effort was well beyond trivial. I ended up sending the board to a good friend who might need one some day and didn't charge him anything. I kept the smaller parts for a year but ended up throwing them away.
I was real lucky. Had mine on CL and within 5 days I had a buyer. He was going to put it in a boat.
