Medic,

Unfortunately I have to disagree with you about the fairness of value pricing on ebay these days, ebay is not what it once was and a lot of folks have discontinued using it for more than reasons of just price.

Ebay has become a bargain hunters forum where value means little and the lowest price means everything. In the case of the Sigma DR-11, it is likely so rare that there may not be much demand for it at all because it is virtually unknown.

I had an idea one time about starting a website called "ConsignmentMusic.com" and even researched the name only to find that someone in Mississippi had the name reserved already. It was a simple idea where sellers could pay a small fee to post photos of their items and then deal directly with potential buyers via email. This concept has been extremely successful in the audiophile quality audio and video arena. I do not know why no one has done it for musicians yet.

I still cannot establish a reasonable value for the guitar yet, but I am working on it. When I do, I will let you know first.
