What do you value your stuff at?
Possible trade ... does this look real?
- Thread starter Eddie
- Start date
If I sold everything separately, I'd get about $1140. So that's kind of expensive for a Gibby LP Studio. I see them on FBM for $900.
So I'm considering what to do about this. May not be in as much my favor as I thought.
A bad trade?
I don't know it depends on the value you place on the guitars involved.
Because I have 2 of the 80s Lead 12 MicroStacks I've been watching them.
They've been listing between $600-800 and selling.
The newer ones go for less.
I'd value the Gibson between $800-1000.
I don't know the the value for the 2 guitars your offering.
It really comes down to if you would be happy and satisfied with the deal.
Good luck
I'm thinking I could get $1140 for the gear separately. So that's a bit higher than the $800-1000. I may back out. I'm not really itching for a Gibby. It's just a good way to bring down my guitars and gear, and maybe even trade the Gibby later on.
We're meeting on Wednesday. I can decide then.
Depends on what your micro stack is. If its one of the Lead 12 versions, no. The MG version....a little more palatable.
Wrong... They are Marshall 3005 Lead 12 MicroStacks.
Mine are from 1985 and have Celestion G10D-25 speakers.
This one was listed 2 months ago and it is already sold.
Marshall Lead 12 3005 mini/micro stack, mid-late '80s, PLEXI-STYLE, EXC COND | Reverb
Condition is very subjective, but I'd easily rate this amp as Excellent Condition at a bare minimum. Quite possibly the cleanest and best example of these amps you will find. Original Celestion speakers. Very minor blemishes if at all, no Tolex tears, no structural damage, from a smoke-free home ...

Not Lead 12. MG15.

I would value the Gibby at 900. If you really like it go for it but dollar for dollar you may come up a bit short. And FWIW I own an original 80s micro stack and love it - bought it new in 86.
The gibby looks real but can he take the neck off so we can see the pocket 
,
and it's close enough for a fair deal, he might be a little ahead but you are not getting screwed. I find in trades it is not so much the value of the pieces but more the happiness of what you're both getting. If you're trading just to have it for a later trade or sell, then I would PASS

You did well son.
Actually, the guy is in Brooklyn that has my FotoFlame but he does a LOT of trades/sales on Craigslist so it's very possible Carl here is just using the picture of the listing he got it from. He may not disclose properly but he does take nice pics.
I backed out. He's valuing his guitar more than it's worth. I'll just move the gear separately. Plus, I'm not really needing another LP.
Did you fall and bump your head?
