RRF Rickenbacker Register Pricing Information

Please note that we have added Rickenbacker pricing information from on line sources such as eBay. At the bottom of each instrument in the Register there is pricing information for that model along with a graph plotting the information.

Gil Disatnik's programming genius has been teamed up with Ron O'Keefe's diligent cataloging of instruments sold on eBay. The result is a close look of the setting price of Rickenbacker instruments during recent months.

Our system is not yet perfect but a good first start. Thanks to Gil, Ron and those who continue to work on our labour of love. :)

That's cool, guys! Now I can read how much I over-paid for my instruments every time I visit. :mrgreen: :)

Cool new feature - thanks Peter and Gil ! :D

Based on the current info average I've payed just below the average for both instruments - not bad!

OK, so I'm kidding about over-paying. Thanks to this feature, I see that I'm a very smart shopper with only one purchase at the average-to-median range and the others well under that. I guess those Home-Ec classes in high school paid off. :lol:

Kira and Werner: Thanks for your kind comments. This project has been in the worlds for many months and we are well pleased with the progress that we have made in that time. Having all of this data at ones fingertips is a valuable tool for the Rickenbacker enthusiast.

Yes, it's a very useful feature. Thanks to all who had a hand. :)

We may see a downtick in the Appraisals section, however ... :lol:

Is the Pricing Information only available to members after they have made 30 posts? And where is the information posted?
Thanks

Jack: You can see this information in the Register. Just click on an entry and at the bottom you will see the pricing information and link if it has been recorded for that particular instrument.
