WTS/WTT OR vintage Coleman white gas stuff

CamoDeafie · Sep 16, 2018

I have two old Coleman white-gas items for sale; a Model 200 from I think 1978 (has 78 stamped on bottom), in the famous red color, and a Model 413C suitcase two burner stove, 1948ish according to the Coleman collector forum info..

I am asking $30 for the pair, or $20 for the Model 200 lantern, and $15 for the suitcase stove. Suitcase stove needs a lot of cleaning and work, might need some replacement parts, not sure here. Was unable to open the brown gas tank to see if there's fuel in there, but Model 200 tank smelt like white gas, so I think it is in better condition than the stove. Both had been stored in a shed for long time, so that's the reason for them being quite dirty.

The problem with camp stoves is the prohibitive cost to ship vs their worth. If I was in the neighborhood I would pick them both up and find them homes with collectors, not that they have a lot of intrinsic value.
That said, I suggest the seller find a friend or relative with a birth date of June 1978 and present it to them. Having a lantern made when you were is a good thing. Get the stove running... nice to have for SHTF scenario.
