The answer might depend on whether you are buying or selling:grin:

My thinking is that a new one costs such and such (easily researched online) and decide what percentage of the new price you would be happy with. Obviously, the better the price, the quicker the sale, but in this situation I think you are at an advantage due to the lack of used Calton cases available. I predict a quick sale on this item. I don't have any feeling if Canadian vs USA makes any difference or not?

They've been on the classifieds for $400 to $500.

I don't know, because I pay more attention to Hoffee prices, but $450 seems a tad low to me, since it is in excellent condition. I'd be inclined to push that price up a little and see what happens. Just don't get too ambitious. You can always accept a lower offer. Posting good pictures of it can help, too.
