Selling Above Ground Pool

[snorkly]

I think we've decided to sell our 3 year old above ground pool. It's so much maintenance and we just had a mishap with it last week. A hose blew off the filter and forced a ton of water under the pool--causing the sand cove to wash away and make holes in our liner. We've managed to patch the holes, and the water is holding, but I think we'd like to get rid of the pool. Has anyone ever sold a pool before? Any advice? Thanks!

Where are you located?

Grace, do we need to find you a pool?

Snorkly, my biggest advice is this. Leave the pool up and operational until sold. It is amazing how little they are worth when they are just a pile of parts.

I sell a few pools a year via my local newspaper. I just recently sold three pools on Ebay. I was cleaning out my backyard.

Best of luck, Dennis

Dennis, I have a doughboy Sand Dollar II picked out at the pool store, but if I could find a really good bargain on a 'young' used pool, I might be swayed...

Then again, letting the PS do the install would save me a lot of planning and potential headaches!

Grace, the only pool I have left is a 16' round Doughboy Blue Glacier.

The Sand Dollar is a rather simple but good quality pool. Like back in the day before all the plastic and resin. It is old time Doughboy quality. I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Having it installed is nice also.

Best of luck, Dennis

Which would you choose from between Dougboy's Desert Spring, Copper Canyon, and Riviera and why Dennis?

BTW that's what our local store carries.
