Bit of a marker tester this one, if i was to stick a couple of Trace Cabs on here 2x10 and matching 15", carpet covered in great condition not used much these days, would there be much interest, say £250 each ?? If so i'll get some pics up

Update, the 15" has been SOLD but the 2x10" is still available, im asking £150 for this.

Honest answer to an honest question ?

I genuinely think you're a little bit strong with your pricing.
I love Trace gear and it's been my first pick for most of my playing career and still is.
I just don't think it does that strongly on the used market.

Sorry if I'm wrong or not what you want to hear.

Here's me gleanings from my many years of marketwatch...

£250 is about right for the tolex models.
There have been some sacrifice prices leading to low expectation, I think.
These were never cheap - nor overpriced - new.

Carpet - lower new prices, cheaper drivers, so less.
£150ish rough, £200ish v. clean seems about right.
Maybe +£25 for the 210, as this has emerged as a 'wanted' format.
+ or -, depending on distance/delivery and level of 'need' at either end.

Then - factor in time spend/waste in 'any pics'/deemos/trials/comparisons/hemming and hawing/delaying/payment.....
Determines 'hard' and 'soft' pricing.

Bottom line has to be cost of drivers - 8ohm 200w celestion 15 is £50 min, 75w Celestion 10 £30 each min., horn £20.
£100 salvage value.....

Had the tolex 1x15 and 2x10 and got 80 and 110 quid respectively,didnt even get an offer on BC.For my mint 4x10 1048h carpet covered I got £160. So maybe 200 to 250 but that would be max for the pair!

Hmm fair doos, seems i need to do a bit more homework, it's been a good while since i bought / sold any cabs, guess i was erring on the optomistic side (just a bit ! :huh: ), will have a re-think and consider the add, Best do the same for the Warwick Pro Tube IV heed too then..

Thanks for the input guys. Say no more
