How much is a Yamaha Electone F-55 worth?

This organ was my grandfather's and he gave it to me about 8 years ago and said "Do what you want with it." I played it for a while when I was in school to help me with broadening my musical experience since that's what I wanted to do come college.... Anyway... It's just sitting in my house collecting dust and I want to sell it but I can't find a price.

It was made in 1984 and it's in excellent condition. There's just a couple small marks on the bench from people sliding their butt across it.

The organ is backwards in the picture because I took it with my Macbook.

A quick scan of ebay produced this:

Ebay item #200350500516
Sold for 333.33 plus $40 shipping
http://tinyurl.com/m65n89
This was the ONLY Yamaha Electone to sell in the last 20 days.
but if it sold, the buyer relisted it a few days later.

I visited http://www.craigslist.org in my area. I could not find the exact one locally, but found similiar models for $200-$300. If you try and sell it on CL, have a great picture and a few links. Make sure your price is a price point lower than average ($50 would be fine), so people are more price concious nowadays. If you want $250, list it for $300 someone will offer you less and then you can play lets make a deal...

There's also http://www.backpage.com/ , http://www.kijiji.com/ and your local area newspaper.
Asker's Rating:
• Ugh, this is disappointing. I know my grandfather paid a lot more than $300 for it. I found the same models you're talking about. I couldn't find a single F-55, which is why I decided to ask. Blah! I just really want to get rid of it because it's taking up room. =\

Good answer. I also recommend selling it locally on Craigslist since it is a large item.
