The Lyon 500 was sold at auction this morning in Dana,IN for $1525.People just told me they would trade me a V56,81,ETC;That don't tell me anything.Did not want to trade anyway.Any offers now,no trades.Machine is worth more than any V81,56,Of course somebody would trade me a round top for it,better make it 3 round tops.Somebody always wanting a DEAL,so they can line their pocket.

Any offers now,no trades
Maybe I am the only one who is confused.?.?
Did you buy it, or was it sold to someone else?
I don't think anyone really had a good idea what it was worth, because they had never really encountered one before.

Well, I put in there to call me, with my phone number. I would have made an offer, but the phone didnt ring...
I'd pay $2000 for it. I already have one, but it isnt in as good of shape.
Assuming everyone is out to line their pockets is not always the case. There are some people out there that pay fair prices and sell things for fair prices - and many of those people are part of this message board.
Sincerely,
Tom

Think $ 4,000 would line quite a few of your pockets very nicely.

Thats what it is worth,is it not? $2000 will not touch it.People are paying $1500+for unrestored V56's,V81's,etc;And those are not near as rare as this.Guess I'll have to think about putting it on ebay.It will bring $3000+,not a doubt in my mind.You guys know what its worth,nobody wants to give a price,cause they want it for alot less than its worth.Time is money and this is America,land of the free,because of alot of veterans including myself.

One sure way to determine the value...
Put it on eBay and start it at $1.00 without a reserve. What is brings is what it is worth. It is only worth what someone will pay for it.
Let me know the item number if you decide to list it...
By the way, V-81's bring around $1400-1800 on ebay, and 56's might hit $2000 if they are lucky.

Remember you asked us "how much is it worth"? No one knew, but we offered what we thought we could afford : trade an 81 /56 etc. worth $1500.
It seems that is exactly what it is worth if you had to bid that high to get it.. Sorry if WE offended YOU.

Now that would be silly to put it on ebay for $1.00 with no reserve? That way you could get for less(possibly) than what I paid for it.Bidding will start at $2000.00.
