Condition: Mint / Unread

£4250 ONO
I can supply more photos and will ship securely and protected

You would be better selling via a platform with protections for buyer and seller, such as eBay, I think. High value items can be somewhat hard to sell if a seller is unknown in the community.


Based on recent prices (a chap in Australia recently sold several - both in original wrap and as new, but opened), your asking price is probably a little strong.

Welcome to the site and good luck with that sale.

Anyone interested, please shoot JohnnyGuitar a pm.

I do agree with The late Stu that your asking price is a bit over market value, and being new to the site members don't know you and are less likely to bite on such a high price.

Thank you for the feedback. Certainly prepared to discuss the price - it was just a guide that came from a little research.
Also appreciate that I am new/unknown - would certainly offer full buyer protection via PayPal (NOT friends & family)

Although I think the posters on this forum are honest, it is much better to use a platform with stronger protection both for you and the buyer. This is such a great copy and I do not want you to risk getting scammed (however small the risk would be).

Beautiful copy.

Thank you - maybe any contacts/potential sales, we can route through eBay. Both sides needs to have security/assurances

If you decide to go that route you’re welcome to post the eBay(or other) auction listing here, as well.
