Answer 2

Hi Sarah,

   It a usual rule of thumb to sell a used instrument for 1/2 of the price of a new one.  But....    if your instrument is in like new condition with no dings or dents and has no bad scratches or leaks....  plays perfectly,  you might ask $650.00 for it.  You can always come down if you get no offers,  but you can never go back up once you set a price.  

  If you have a picture of the instrument,  you might get that ready because interested people from the internet might just want to see it.

Hope that helps.
