How can you find out the value of a Yamaha Electone organ model A60U serial 21098?

Answer 1

Start by consulting a local piano/organ repair expert, if you have one in your area. The organ market is particularly narrow, and heading straight to an expert in the field will be your best bet for a good estimate. One of these people might even be able to help you find an interested buyer.

Besides asking locally, you could check SOLD or COMPLETED listings for similar units on a site like eBay, if any are available - eBay, for instance, only shares data on sold items up to 90 days ago. So, if nothing has sold recently, you won't have any way to know what it went for.

You can also look online to sites like eBay, Craigslist or Kijiji to see what people are currently *trying* to sell their A60U for. Just remember, what someone ASKS for a unit is not the same as what people will actually PAY for it, so pay attention to the average asking price, and plan for a similar return.

That is, unless your serial number has a particularly good connection or your organ is in especially better condition than others.

And remember, condition is everything. Organs, particularly vintage ones, are not always easily fixed. Yours will command a much better price the closer it is to mint working order, and will command exponentially less if certain functions are not acting as they should.
