Guys

Whats a good price on a used classic 78 bottom chest?

Fella came into my store showing pictures of it on his cell phone. Looked to be in pretty good shape, a couple nicks in the paint--stuff like that

$1,500 to 2,000

If I was in the market for a box, I'd give about $1200 for it.

I sold a Classic 78 about a year ago. It was a nice box, with some minor scratches. I listed it on Craigslist for several weeks, at what I considered a very fair price, $1500. Long story short, I could have sold it for $1100 on CL, but instead let my Snapon guy sell it on consignment. He got me $2000 for it.

around here that would be a 1500 to 2000 dollar box, prices vary widely across the country tho

When it comes to SO boxes, the market is pretty flooded with classic 78's. At anytime, there is at least four on the CL's I watch. In all honesty, $2000 is a good price for a SO box that size, but with so many to chose from, $1200 is pretty easy to do.

One was on the snap on truck this week in pretty nice shape for $2200 asking price it was a trade in so that is about what used retail is here in Indianapolis
