It's a ruby. Says so right on the box. I bought it around 1983. Whats it worth guys!(assuming it functions ok, etc.)??? I want to sell and give someone a good , fair deal.
There is a Dynavector for sale here at Audiogon for $275.00. I don't know how that model stacks up against yours, but it is a starting point.

As old as yours is you may have to play it to be certain you have a good working piece. Only other option is sell to a person who you can trust and give them a week (or other time period) to try the cartridge out to be sure performance is good. Selling used cartridges is difficult at best, I am struggling for ideas that would be fair to all concerned.
Sure. I would never have a problem selling anything w/ a satisfaction guarantee, esp. an unknown commodity like these.i just wish i knew what was fair.
Not knowing what they are worth, I'd suggest putting them up for auction. Let the market decide. I'm not a fan of auctions myself (due to a relatively short attention span) but in this case it's probably the best way to determine market value. Jeff
Good point Jeff. So long as Mark makes everything clear up front, the bidders should know what they are getting into and bidding on. Sean
