Check ebay completed listings. A few 1000zxl have sold, but I have not seen any of the LGF edition sold. I agree with LAK that it will take the right collector to buy this. Put it up for sale on ebay and you will be able to answer your question. Someone has 2 of the LGF up for sale at what I think is a silly price.
A little help please
I am new to the forum. This is my first posting. I dabble a bit in audio equipment, ( buying & selling ) mostly ebay and craigslist. However I recently attended a estate sale and purchased a piece of equipment, that I think requires more knowledge than I have. ( Nakamichi 1000zxl Limited gold face)
I bet that will make some ears stand up. The unit is cosmetically fantastic, sonically the left channel does not play. After research, I found, repairing the unit will cost between, $1500 & $2000. I am going to sell it, however repairing it is questionable for me, profit wise. Plus some buyers may want their own tech to do the repairs. After extinsive research, I have found, there was between 100 & 200 made worldwide. They were made to order and sold in 1981 for $6000.00. Ok here is the question. Value?
As I stated it is for sale. Being such a high end and rare unit, I feel it should command a fare price.
Thanks to everyone who responds
