Selling?

I just had an unsolicited offer to buy my CJ 350. He wanted to drive down from the East Coast and pay cash. No price was mentioned. The next day he ask and I told him $6500. I thought this was quite low but I am getting old and have moved into an apt. He was shocked and said that he had seen many for $4000 and one for $3800. Now I have been in audio since 1960 and have a good idea what things are worth. I did not believe this for a minute. Looking on the net I found only one and it was $8724. So if you don't know yourself check with the bluebook before you sell. I told him to buy one of the cheap ones he talked about. So beware of lowballs.

Hello Stanwal. Wonderful amp you have! The amp is now over 10 years old and has an original retail price of $9500. They have sold for as little as $3800 and as much as $5200 - $6000 several years ago. As I see it an asking price of $4500-$4800 is reasonable and fair. $4500 is certainly not a low ball offer in late 2016 to be honest. 

$6500 is too high based on my experience, but you can certainly try and sell it for that. 

I have always desired to own one and would pay no more than $4500.....tops.

Yes, but we are helping him with reality so he may sell an amp he is possibly not using.  That is what we do here, help others with our collective experience and wisdom. 

That is all.  Please open your mind beyond your one thought which is partly true.

Agreed regarding Stanwal as I have read his posts over the past many years. He has always been respectful and positive to this community.
