frogmonkey Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I thought y'all might be interested in this sale. I just put a deposit on an A100 and a Leslie 251... and a Leslie 122, all in excellent condition! The guy has 3 more A100's, and a bunch of Leslies. He's keeping a perfect B3/122 for himself.

Outkaster Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Hammond A100 (2) 1000$ each = Worth $600 tops Hammond A100 with Leslie 251 tube amp (2) 1900$ each pair = Still too much Leslie 760 solid state amp (2) 500$ each = worth no more than $350.00 Leslie 122 tube amp 900$ = would not pay more than $400 for it. Leslie 710 solid state amp 500$ = not even worth $200.00 Leslie II pre-amp pedal for Leslie 760 (allows hookup of instruments with 1/4" jacks into Leslie) 100$ = good price Leslie 51 tube amp 500$ = worth $300 at best.

ProfD Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Outkaster, considering you recently had gear up for sale, I doubt you would appreciate being "outed" in your pricing. The PSA is noble but it is up to the customer to do their own due diligence in determining how much they are willing to pay.

Skinny Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Is there some confusion here maybe? Like when the seller says "Leslie 122 tube amp $900", does that mean it's a Leslie 122 WITH a tube amp (just being very descriptive), or does he or she mean a tube amp FROM a Leslie 122? :idk I don't think $900 for a Leslie 122 is unreasonable. Unless he means just the amp. Stuff and things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I think he's stating that the 122 has a tube amp in it, not that he wants $900 for just the tube amp. The $900 is for a Leslie 122, in which case it's more than fair. $1000 for an A100 is an okay deal, too. I routinely see them going for $1200 to $1500. Keep it greazy!

CEB Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 These are reasonable asking prices pretty much all the way around if all the gear works.

I have gotten that stuff cheaper. I don't know any techs that will pay those prices. No A-100 is worth $1200.00 sorry but they are not as desirable as B cabinets are. If the 122 is the actual whole Leslie $900 is not unreasonable. "Danny, ci manchi a tutti. La E-Street Band non e' la stessa senza di te.

Bill H. Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Those prices seem fairly reasonable, though certainly not what you could find that gear for if you were patient and persistent. It's been a long time since I've seen A100s in the PDX CL for $500-600, and that's what they were just a few years ago. I don't know what that means, if it's a local thing or what. I don't know the East Coast, but it sounds like he's located quite a ways from US metro areas. It could be a problem moving that stuff at anything but bargain basement prices. Location is everything with Craigslist offerings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frogmonkey Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 Yes, the 122 is an actual 122 in excellent condition- actually it's a 122R, and I happily bought it for $900. Outkaster, that's crazy talk. I read your frequent posts about your cheap Hammond aquisitions with amazement and envy. I don't check Kijiji regularly, but I do check craigslist and other classifieds in my area obsessively, and in the last 3 years I haven't found Hammonds/Leslies of this quality for anything close to these prices. Looking at Kijiji now, I don't see anything that actually competes with these prices. There's an M for $900, a C for $2000, an L for $975, and various "colored tab" organs for $500 or more.

Analogaddict Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Ouch... Here a Leslie 122 would cost you $2100 and up... An A-100 would cost you an arm and a leg (or about $7000). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outkaster Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 It's not crazy talk you just have to keep your eyes open and network as best you can. $900.00 is OK for that Leslie.

Not exactly $7000 here in Italy maybe, but this guy says "Lowest price on the web"...! http://www.mercatinomusicale.com/mm/a_Vendo-Hammond-A100-Prezzo-pi-249-basso-del-web_id1666235.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marino Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 And since we are on the subject of insane prices... here are a few prices from an Italian store which specializes in vintage and analog gear. To have a clearer picture, keep in mind that the euro is valued between 20% and 30% more than the dollar: Roland System 100m 6000 Roland MKS80+mpg80 1950 Prophet T8 4300 Prophet 10 6300 Korg MonoPoly 1480 (!) Matrix-12 4800 Memorymoog 5400 Synthex 4500 Minimoog 3800 ARP 2600 6800 Prophet 5 3500 Voyager 3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yannis D Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Analogaddict A guy here sells his B3 with leslie for 10.000 euros! And nobody can blame him: he's one of the very few who own a B3, so it's practically a "vintage organs trust" and there are not anti-trust lows, at least for B3s! Carlo Vintage synths' prices are skyrocketing, but i think that in Italy is't kind of cheaper than here. Maybe i shoud buy an Easy jet ticket and come check myself... It's easier this way Be grateful for what you've got - a Nord, a laptop and two hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
