I'm looking to sell my 2001 manufactured Reese 16K 4 way pivot head 5er hitch. This is NOT a slider. Of course, the rails will stay in my truck.

Any idea what would be a good asking price?

I sold a SuperGlide by Pullrite with the rails for 900.00.... It was used 1 time.. new it was 2000.00... So way better than 1/2 price..

I agree with dfb: about 50% of original price. Less if you will be selling less than a complete hitch as you indicated.

Good luck,

The buyer may have to pay as much as $100 for a rail kit. So 50 percent off what a new hitch would cost minus $50 would probably be fair. I say minus $50 because the rails you are keeping are also worth about 50 percent of what they would cost new.

Last year I paid $100 for the same hitch (Reese/2001/16k/4-wp). It was on Ebay and his wife wanted it out of the garage TODAY
Drove 3 hours, each way, to pick it up. A new rail kit was another $100 and, after MUCH searching, the pins to attach the hitch to the rails were another $30 or $40.

The others I had looked at were in the $200 - $300 range. It is the shipping that makes it hard to buy/sell a used hitch, unless it is local.

Good luck,

David
