Deal on Perlick 525ss

So, I found a pair for $55 including shipping. Just what's in the pic. Does this sound like a good deal? What else would I need to hook up to beer lines and what is that likely to cost? I'm looking to do a coffin top keezer build similar to some of the designs I've seen here. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1448736994.781167.jpg

Decent deal but not great. You can get a pair of new Perlick 630s for about $70 shipped this week.

Regardless, you will need shanks, tailpieces, beer nuts, beverage tubing, clamps for the tubing, and quick disconnects for your kegs. You can get the first three items as a set usually. Alternately, you could go with a tower(s) but that will be more expensive. Ballpark estimate of $50 per faucet, not counting the cost of the faucet itself.

Thanks! Where'd you see the 630's at. And do they come with the shanks, nuts, and tailpieces? If not, where might I find them?

Morebeer had the 630s yesterday for black friday. I would check on Monday for another sale.

Faucets are sold faucet only. You will have to buy the rest of the parts. Any homebrew store that sells kegging hardware should have them.

Looks like Beverage Factory has the 630s with stainless shank, tailpiece, and nut on sale for $56.95 right now. Don't know what their shipping would be.

AIH has the faucets for 35, shanks for 10, and tailpiece assembly for 3. Not sure on shipping. Today only.

Tailpiece assembly is actually $2.25 if you buy all 3 pieces separately... Weird

Shipping on that roughly 5USD. That's what mine cost.

Check www.homebrewing.org or www.ritebrew.com

Both are usually good pricing and low shipping costs.
