I can answer one of those for you. There is a 78 and a 79 tele at my local vintage music shop and they are asking 1300 for one and 1800 for the other. the more expensive one is in about as good shape as the link you posted. So I would say thats about dead on in the price range of what I see here at the shops. Have you checked the fender blue book prices?

I know yours is not a deluxe but this is as close as i could quickly find, might help a bit for pricing?

Its a fair price and in good shape.
It looks all correct to me.
