    This Bryant is from 1992, and supposedly works, but it's old. The consensus on FB Marketplace seems to be that if it's R-22 and works, people will pay out the ass to not have to replace their entire system with one that uses R410a; I believe they stopped making R-22 units altogether in 2011, so the newest of those units are over a decade old. I have sent the seller of this 1992 Bryant several messages, offering as much as $50 for the unit, but have gotten no response...

    Not only is it older, but it's a damn Nordyne; I messaged the seller and he absolutely refuses to budge on the price...

    If I could get this guy down to $200, this would be a good deal; I would not scrap this unit, but where the hell would I keep it?!?!

    This 1995-2001ish Goodman/Janitrol is being sold by an HVAC technician, who has actually been very nice, but won't go below $150. He is one of those people who seems to think that just because it's a working R-22 unit, somebody will actually want it installed in their home...

    NEWSFLASH: It's a Goodman!

    Another Bryant that's well over 20 years old. If somebody's central air breaks and they can't afford to get a new system, a brand new window unit could be purchased for less than what they're asking!

    A lot of these are actually really nice units, but they're older, and they could literally die the day after being installed!

    I'd like to know where people are getting these old A/C units so I can have a cut of the action!

    This thing was not worth $500 when it was new!

    Another Goodman; I could probably get about $150 for this whole system after breaking it down...

    Apparently, I messaged him before about another secondhand A/C unit he had listed (I have no recollection of this), and somewhere along the line he assumed I was looking to repair an R-22 central A/C system. He then started bombarding me with videos and pictures...
