Would say if you can get it for $800 as described that's not bad in these times.....when you start talking $1k that is more like Model 27 territory.
Have to agree with TimZ. $1000-1100, I'd want excellent with box.. or an early Model 29.
Bought my 6" -2 about two years ago for $650 or so. I would say it's condition isn't as good as the one you're describing. I'd say 800-850 is about right. Keep in mind that shop may be an hour or less from me too, so that is a local price.
I thought $800 would be about fair in the current climate and sounds like the resounding number from the replies above.
They want $1300 - thought it was higher than giraffe puzzy but had to do a sanity check.
The search continues.
