I have an old Craftsman (Yard Man) reel mower, model # 123.81730. The tag says it was manufactured by Yard-Man, Inc. I cannot find any information on it online. Does anyone know where I can find any information on it, or what the value of it is?
Thank you.

I have not seen any evidence of these being very collectible so you would have to be looking for someone in your area that is interested in having a reel mower. According to where you live there may be people with almost perfect lawns that may be interested.
I could not find any sold listings of this particular model and that is the only way to state a 'current value' but this would not hold true with a mower as no two will ever be in the same condition nor sold in the same area.
I would suggest you list the mover on any site that has local listings so you can list it as 'pick up only' - Craigslist, USA4Sale, offerup, letgo, and etc.
You can start your price at a higher price - even $100 and just lower it if no one seems interested. Post a good description and several good pictures. These sites are all very easy to use.
You can also ask question on this site.
If it's in good working order, and sharpened, you can easily get $90 for it. Folks can buy a new one on Amazon for $60 or so, but they are NOT sturdy and require more sharpening.
If it's sharpened you could even get $120 for it
People still want these, for utilitarian purposes.
