Thanks coachgeo for contacting JW but I am trying to sell a set of stairs, not looking for a set to buy. (My M1079 sold in 2021.) I thought you were suggesting I match his price in my own ad. Your conversation with JW confirms my suspicion that it will likely take a while to find a buyer.

coachgeo - I don’t have a Facebook account so I was unable to see Joe Washington’s posts. There are some regular boarding ladders on eBay. Much cheaper than the $1099 & $1495 stairs I’ve found so far. I listed with a $500 reserve/starting bid so I’ll see how that goes. Might have to adjust to...
The auction went live last night (eBay item number:166751252844). I listed it as “LMTV M1079 rear stairs/steps/boarding ladder.”

I think the stairs are too long for a 48 inch pallet. Would be nice if they fit. I’ll ask my friend to measure. I don’t think he can weigh it because he has a neck problem. I’d rather him not lift it. I was hoping a freight company could pick it up at his house.
I expected the weight would be...
Does anyone know how much the stairs weigh? Any suggestions on how to ship them?
Mine are at a friend’s house in California but I’m in Texas. I want to auction the stairs to get them out of his way.
