I have visited a number of marinas, most have used props on consignment or on sale that are sitting in stock for years. I am looking for a 19" 4 blade.

If there is enough demand for used props, I would to set up a 'clearing house' of used props that can be available on line.

Any thoughts?
I have a used prop that I bought off E-bay. It's in great shape but it was the wrong prop for my 4.3 Mercruiser. I think it's for a smaller HP Mercruiser. The guy scammed me. It came in the box with the right prop that I needed but it was a different prop than was on the box. I bought it as a spare but when I needed it I put it on and my boat would barely move like I had a slipping transmission. From now on I'm buying new in an unopened box.
