Early 60s Gibson gatorskin case, $10.

Anyone know the market value for one in this shape? I'm gonna clean it. It's got a little dirt and a few scuffs, but it's pretty nice.

Those type don't demand as much as the harder cases with the colored insides (gold, red, pink, purple) but if it is an early 60's or 70's you should be able to get at least $150, perhaps more. I would put it up for auction, no reserve, starting bid at $150 plus $30 shipping.

Ahhh, I don't expect much from it. I threw it up on CL for $75. Wonder if anyone will bite.

For 75 on CL depending on your area I would think you will get bites..but they will try to lowball...."will you take 50 cash right now?" etc. On ebay that case would sell fast due to the national/worldwide exposure. They are somewhat valuable, just not as much as the legit hard cases.

To be honest, I'd take a lower amount and make them think they're getting a deal when its all profit to me
