Thanks Jim.
Not knowing how current those estimates are is mildly problematic, but I like that the ebay selling ranges are separate.

Greg-

The last one I saw for sale at auction was this one:

http://www.mjdtools.com/ToolItem.php?item=259719&list=1438

which sold in September of last year in Nashua. It sold for $300.

Hope this helps,

Josh

I appreciate the info, Josh. I think that I can feel comfortable knowing about what it will bring. I had a couple lowball offers for it (Around the $100 - $150 range) and wasn't comfortable letting it go for that without letting it see more views.

I think I'll list it on Ebay in the next few days. If it goes low there, at least it had some exposure.

The one I'm willing to part with is in pretty good shape, but not a beauty pageant winner. My keeper #11 1/2 is a stunner.

Thanks to you all who helped me out finding info.

Just in case anyone else was interested:

I found where a #11 1/2 was sold for $375 on a private site in the last 60 days. No pic, but the description states in "good" condition with 70% japanning and a near full length blade.

Josh and others who may be interested;

The 11 1/2 sold on ebay for $342.77. I'm pretty happy with that number, considering I still have my keeper 11 1/2 in awesome condition.
