Hi,

what do you think about this auction? Is 250 Euros a good price?

My German is rusty, and who knows what the conversion rate will wind up being when the auction ends, but essentially:

Currently at ~$350US, seller says it's a beautifully maintained piece with the original hard shell case, case is only three years old. Looks like new, plays easy, flat/straight neck (I think that's what it says about the neck). Something about the strings that I can't quite figure out. No warranty as it's a private auction and the bidder agrees to that.

I'd send the usual note asking for close up pics of the bridge; asking about general condition (scratches, cracks, breaks, splits); requesting detailed description of any repairs (neck, headstock, body, binding, bridge); etc.

For $350, I think it's a good deal, but that's just my opinion. You can compare these other auctions, but they're in the US, not in DE:

Balladeer

Std. Balladeer

Std. Balladeer

Of course, the one you posted is a Classic Balladeer, not a Std., but...yours is a -4, and I'm partial to natural finishes (and five piece necks). Viel Glueck!

As far as classical guitars go, this one looks pretty nice. The 1122 was not as popular as the deep bowl version, but overall it looks in nice condition and the price is right. I would not pay more than 300 Euros.
