Josh,
As I recall, these go for about $600 to $700.

Welcome.

I'd shave about $200 off of Darryl's estimates assuming a private sale to someone who won't pay a bricks and mortar store retail price, but I tend to be cynical. Case? Pictures?

I paid less than $300 for my '99 made-in-Korea M-75 at a guitar show.

It's unfortunate, Josh... It may be a really nice guitar, but import (especially pac rim) guitars generally do not have a strong resale value. I agree with frono. You'll be doing well to pull $500 out of it.

The realist in me thinks that DeArmond values are going to drop like rocks once the m-I-k Guilds get out in the stores. I know I asked too much for mine in fs/ft. After doing some looking on eBay, it's only a three hundred buck guitar at best. DeArmond prices are most robust with the basses and the SF lV types. Unfortunately for DeA owners, the street price of a Newark street model is going to be within spitting distance of what they used to sell for.
