Widow Needs Advice--Marantz AV 7005


Hi All,
I’m a widow at the tail end of selling my husband’s estate & I’m hoping this post is okay since it discusses pricing.(I’ve posted a few times before seeking advice and I was so grateful because everyone was overwhelmingly helpful. This is a great community!!)

Here’s my dilemma:
I listed his Marantz AV 7005 for $425 in mid-May on FB (local pick up) & today I got an offer for $350. (I used hifishark dot com to determine my pricing & priced it towards the low end.)

I haven’t responded to the potential buyer yet because I wanted to check hifishark dot com again to see if selling prices have changed. (They haven’t.)

The Marantz is in excellent condition (hubby babied his electronics) & it works. (He was using it up to the end.) I’ve got the original packaging & box, the User Guide, Remote, Power Cord and the Audyssey Omnidirectional Calibration Microphone. I also took good photos of the front & back--including a photo of it turned on--and photos of everything that comes with it.

Back to today’s offer. I thought to counter him at $400 (do you think I should?), but if he wants to stick to $350 I’m not sure what to do. Is this an item that will go down in value the longer I hang onto it? Thoughts??
EDITED TO ADD: Average selling price for this unit (in comparable shape) since January of this yera is $406. Just an FYI.

Do an Ebay advanced search and check the expired listings for the Marantz. You can see what others sold for, which gives you a better idea of the value. 
As to the offer, it's always appropriate to make a counter offer if it meets your approval.
Good luck to you. I am sorry for your loss.
you get less audience with local pickup only, which is whu it has taken so long to get an offer. I would tell buyer: let's split the difference come get it.
It's only worth what you can sell it for. I'd take the $350. Make sure you let the buyer understand it is "as is - no return."

All good advice here: local pickup does limit your audience and most gear are not going for what they're listed at. The fact that you have someone willing to come over and save the hassle of splitting shipping costs, etc. doesn't come around very often, if at all. 

I'd take the $350 as well.

All the best,
Nonoise
All good advice, but for me I would counteroffer. Check ebay for what they are selling for, to get an idea. You will get less than ebay if you are not willing to ship it. If you have the original box, packing material, and can lift it okay, list it on Reverb or Ebay and ship it to get the highest price. Good luck.
After this long, I'd certainly take the offer.  Markets fluctuate, and pricing is different in every region. 
Counter offer to split the difference. BTW, Shipping is typically paid for by the buyer.
