been higher, so value now is as good as it is going to get.
Sales volume of apprx. 2.2 million dollars, if we could estimate an average "wholesale" ticket of (say apprx.) $1250/stove, could mean production of somewhere around 1,500 to 2,000 stoves per year...If significant complimentary businesses, controls and etc. then proportionately fewer actual stoves.

The asking price, it seems, is shown as a "RANGE" because it is generated by a LISTING FORM...

Very Curious

I recently got a delivery of coal from a longtime PA coal dealer that also sells Keystoker products. We talked about the long delivery times and the "old time" ways of the company. Apparently the owners name is "Jim" and my coal dealer has know him for decades. My dealer said the company was for sale prior to the fire. A deal was in the works to sell it to a group of the company employees. But after the fire the deal was off the table. I don't have any other information to verify the claims but it sounds like a likely story. Having seen the inside of the company it's unlikely any anyone other than an insider would want anything other than the product name and the proven stove/furnace/boiler designs.
