Kev Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 they have been selling recently between £400 and £600, worth alot more of course but for whatever mad reasons Warwick's are still selling for silly money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 TBH mate it'll be worth more than you paid for it (£0) but a lot less than you'd probably hoped for! That's the pain of being a Warwick owner at present; I'd advise advertising it in Europe either on ebay or via the Warwick forum. As for price either do a search of completed listings on ebay or a search of sales of similar instruments on BC (and there have been a few identical instruments sold on here).

RichF Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=129026"]Corvette $$[/url] assume 4 string, last one on here offers around £450. As Kev says lunatic money (I have a 5 string $$, which I love) but the 2nd hand market is particularly rough on Warwicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammy-bikes Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 thanks, im watching a few on ebay to see how they turn out, why is the market so bad for second hand warwicks then? is it worth hanging on for a while longer or will it continue losing value?

I wouldn't bet on it, though. At least not for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see if the middle east Warwick range that is beginning to take over their production will drive the german 'wick values up...

charic Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 They do tend to fluctuate in value a bit... I would recommend putting up a for sale for [u]what you want to sell it for[/u] if it doesn't sell then you've lost nothing. Unless your in a real bind for money that is.
