[QUOTE="Deiimos, post: 8907643, member: 682903"] Love these amps and they are fairly simple to repair (not the MOSFETs as they are soldered to strips, but otherwise easy to fix usually), for the right price they are worth someones time to fix up. Better chance on ebay for highest price than locally, although there is shipping and fees there. Doesn’t hurt to list them locally and see what offers you get. I use to buy a lot of non working amps to fix / sell on ebay, I have not in years and ebay is very different now, but use to be one of the faster ways to sell them. Locally stuff would sit for months, on ebay would sell first time to two listed. Check the sold listings on ebay for approximate current value in the "parts or not working" section and the "used" category. They are not worth a ton if they need repair, but they will still bring in a little bit, they were decent amps in their time. I'd guestimate $50 -$100 on the broken 800, $300+ on the 1000 if its fully working. These are basically old school / vintage amps these days, so do have value. Lower prices for faster sales. Get everything fully packed and boxed up before listing for sale on ebay, the shipping costs can be brutal if you don't enter box dimensions and all that in the system. I screwed up once or twice out of a few thousand sales, and had to eat most of my profit on the extra shipping cost for those items. If you have all of the end caps, they are worth a decent amount by themselves as people seemed to lose them. I always dreamed of having a pair of the chrome 1100a2's with the center link. [/QUOTE]
