Check the model. Some of those older instruments are valuable -- if they haven't suffered too much use.

But used 12-strings really don't last. Consider the Stella model that Lead Belly used. There is demand for them -- partly because it's what Lead Belly played, but mostly because so few of them are left. They're under-braced -- like all 12-strings with good sound.
