LOL I started at 1400, seller said any number he would consider had to start with a 2. Anyone think 2k is a good deal for the '65?

I would say it might be OK if you can do the required work yourself.  I don't know that I'd want to put more money in it.  I didn't like the look of the headstock repair. It looked functional, but could have been a lot cleaner.  I think this seller should accept the idea that a 2 with only zeroes after it could be his best offer.  If he really paid $5K for that, he's certainly hoping to find someone with money to burn that isn't very scrutinizing.

  The seller is a nice guy and he has posted it on tb in GFS. We just couldn't come to terms. I might be hotter for it if The new NRs were not about to land.

Looks like he has reduced it to $2250. Still high for the condition isn't it?

Very high. I'd say the $1400 starting figure Scott offered was more than fair.

 It's FS on tb and back on ebay with a opening bid of 2k, still to much imho. I have a feeling I may get a call if it fails to sell.

I'd rather have the new RI.  Really, are these old NRs really worth it?  I just can't justify it, as hard as I try.

     $1,965 is still way to much, if he comes down to within reason Ill bite.

That's no bargain either but much better than the one with the berserk sanding job.
