...which is in 'as new' condition (still with the stickers on the scratchplate and the sellophane, etc), complete with case.

No, this isn't an advert!! What I'm wondering about is the price I should aim to get for it. There haven't been many (if any) in recent months on eBay, so I can't use that as a guide.

Any ideas?
 
What, we can banter about how long a neck tenon should be and whether Greco SuperReals were really only made in 1980 despite some seemingly coming from 1981, but no-one wants to suggest a figure for my Casino?! :p
 
Maybe the guys at the Epiphone forum have an answer for this... I've read a few positive opinions about the Casino in the past, but can't remember the prices.

Thanks, I'd forgotten about that forum.

I suspect I'll probably get some "$800" suggestions from people in the USA who can buy things ridiculously cheap and who would baulk at my idea of a reasonable price!
 
Inspired by our new banner ad I just looked around the MF site and found some interesting guitar reviews there, among them the Epiphone Elitist series in general and a very expensive John Lennon replica Casino:

So maybe this might give you an idea how to price your Casino.
 
Thanks, a useful resource there!

I have an idea about the price now, I think. Or perhaps a gut feeling...
