I cannot find the auction anymore. What was the final price ?

Posted by Andrew Woodcock (Member # 3260) on September 24, 2015, 02:34 PM:

Around 200 euros Dom. Needed a paint job but still looked a bargain to me besides all the other bits and pieces included.

Good price, indeed

Posted by Andrew Woodcock (Member # 3260) on September 24, 2015, 05:39 PM:

i think it was the base mono model also Dominique, so realistically these typically sell for around £300 - £400 for even a cherished example.

A bargain? Yes indeed, but not like getting a 93 HTI for say £500!

I once bought a GS 1200 for $90!! It was in good working order.

It was put on Craiglist for weeks and no one bought it...strange heh....

The even more strange ones was the seller was an Ebay seller with high ratings. So he didn't bother to list it on Ebay.
