Recent auction results
Hi, everybody. For a while now I have been shopping for a Ric, and as part of that I have been monitoring eBay auctions of the models I was interested in. I recently made a deal on a nice 360 so I am not going to be watching the Ric market as closely anymore, but I thought people here might find the data I accumulated over recent weeks interesting.
I was looking for a six-string and didn't really care about vintage. I focused my search on 360, 330, and 620 models, although I took note of other less-common models of interest too. I ignored "auctions" that were pretty clearly dealers or psuedo-dealers asking retail prices. Aside from those, while I can't swear this is every Ric in those categories that's been listed on eBay recently, it's definitely most of them. All the auctions I noted included OHSC, and all ended in apparent sales except where noted. Anyway, here's what I observed:
Model, Date, Price, Shipping, Notes
330 6/24 909.00 65.00 Jetglo
330 6/25 975.03 28.69 Fireglo
330 6/28 999.00 45.00 Jetglo NO BIDS
330 7/1 1,175.00 50.00 Fireglo, unused since new
330 7/2 950.00 25.09 Jetglo, some minor flaws, NO BIDS
330 7/4 1,190.00 32.78 Fireglo
340 7/4 1,125.00 65.00 Jetglo, factory trem, listed as 330
360 6/19 1,225.00 45.00 Jetglo, with Rick-o-sound box
360 6/20 1,140.33 actual Turquoise
360 6/22 1,011.00 30.00 Jetglo, some visible wear
360 6/22 1,126.00 50.00 Mapleglo, case candy
360 6/22 1,205.00 65.00 Fireglo

360 6/30 1038.00 55.00 Midnight blue
360 7/1 800.00 50.00 Fireglo, NO BIDS, would not take PayPal
360 7/1 1,180.00 45.00 Mapleglo
381V69 6/20 2,849.99 ? Fireglo
610 6/20 910.00 65.00 Jetglo
620 5/12 911.00 45.00 Fireglo
620 6/21 950.00 ? Fireglo, NO BIDS
650A 6/20 1,125.00 30.00 Turquoise
650D 6/27 760.00 ?
I didn't win any of these auctions, but I did find a 360 for sale on another forum and (knock on wood) next week I'll be playing my own Ric again for the first time in too long! (I had a 360 for a while in the 90s but sold it during a fit of poverty, and I've been wanting another one for a long time.) Thanks to this research I'm comfortable that I got a good price on it.

Thanks for the data, Chuck, and welcome!!!
Interesting, though not too surprising, that all of these models are selling in a fairly narrow price range, depending upon the usual factors such as condition and color, and independent of model, although you don't mention age.
Sole exception is of course the 381V69; an atypically high price was paid for that one!

Nice work Chuck and welcome!
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
