There is lots to consider.

As a point of reference, brand new PeeWee .020's are available for $45 and used less than that.

A TD .020, even used, would be condisiderably more than that.

NOTE: A PeeWee .020 has a reed valve, a TD .020 has a rotary valve. Get your questions answered BEFORE you put cash on the table. Sad Sad Sad

Depends on age! I have seen a nip pee wee go for around 200 no lie.
But that was from
1957 on a mint blister pack so age is also a Key factor!

Hey Indra,

What's the big idea? You post about a $45 .020 tee dee on ebay but, no link to it?

Very Cruel lol!

I suppose I am going to have to let it go as I am happy with the one I have already.

And I would remindthat there is no universal standard of engine values and asking prices and selling prices aren't necessarilly the same. Selling price comes when the buyer and the seller come to a mutual agreement.

Thus is the essence of a "free market" economy. Would anyone here have it otherwise?

If engine is new TD with all items $70.00 is a good deal. Used would depend on condition and worth less. Peewee is different story ggod ones $25-30. New more w package. Even the PeeWee is good engine and just keep it clean. They scream and reliable. The TD .020 advantage besides power is you can easily use biggest tank you want. lol!

I don't know I would not pay more than 60 for a later nib tee dee .020 or up to 90 for a 60's era one.

Used, strong running peewee020`s go for $20-$30, teedee`s around $50 by the way.

I wouldn`t go over $70 for a nib teedee020 no matter what year it was made,then again,I already have several lol!

Yes and if you are going to fly it, so long as it is in good condition it does not matter if it is nib or not.
