[Elecraft] K3 Price Ideas

As a general rule, I do not pay more that 2/3 of the new price for any 
ham gear - that is just my personal clip-point, yours and others may 
vary.  So figure what you paid for the K3 and whatever options/upgrades 
you bought and go from there.

If you are willing to offer the buyer a short term money back guarantee, 
that will give you a leg-up on a higher price.  Consider that the buyer 
will be buying it as an unknown and may want to send it in for a general 
checkup and any possible upgrades, so that will affect your asking price 
by about $250.
