For $1200 it should come with a boat. LOL
Better check kiji there are a lot asking 350- 450 for motor only. And some for $1200 that come with a boat.

Any 9.9 that's running on Kijiji for $350 is a total piece of crap. I've sold good used 2 stroke 9.9 and 15's for as much as $1500 through the marina. That is assuming the engine is in good shape and runs well with a tank and hose. Hell, a new Mercury tank and fuel line will run you $300.Quote:

Sorry. I don't see the value, but then again, you're working at a retailer with retail prices, and likely the clientele you see have more money to blow because they want the security of a warrantee. Or they simply don't want to take the time to shop around.Quote:

The 1990 that I sold, I bought with another 1974 9.5 Evinrude. The 9.9 needed a fuel pump, the Evinrude needed a set of points ( actually the old ones just needed cleaning). I bought both from the Kitchener rowing club off Kijiji for the grand sum of $350. Sold both for a small profit after doing about an hour of work on each.
