This was my guitar originally. I sold it to Jim.
Guitar is great. Current seller, not so much. However, you don't have to like a seller to do a deal with them.
I'm sure I've asked this before, but you didn't get it from Danny did you?
I think I've got that one. Currently valuing it much higher than the market pricing

I don't think it's my old one sorry Slowy

Seeing as how he mentions its on Facebook that's (typically) a hint they'd be open to a deal over there for less than the TM price due to no fees. At $5k he's already eating $500, and that's gonna be around $700 with Ping.

I sold three R7's in the last 10 months - two for $4500, and a limited edition aged one for about $7K. All with cases, candy, etc.
I'd say the NZ market rate for a bog standard R7 is therefore $4500.
3 R7s in 10 months??? You should start a store... You could call it 'Gibsons Rock'!

That gives you some wiggle room if you were keen.
Just to be pedantic the TM fee on $5K is $395.00. The ping fee on $5K is 97.50. So total wiggle room (i.e. that net's the vendor what they would have got selling on TM via Ping) is $492.50. Then there's the value of an actual offer...

Love me a bit of pedantry. Good from you, Mike.

Twas the season for R7 trades.
Two are still on the forum...shy owners
Guilty as charged …. Nice R7 BTW
I’d suggest that particular one is an outstanding R7.

Is this the aftermarket aged one?
A Gibson factory aged R7 (certificate states "Aged"). Some of the best light aging I've seen from Gibson. A very limited run from 2016 that came with the Costa Rica aged case as well.

You were very lucky to get that one. I sold it to Brian expecting to buy it back once he'd sated his curiosity. He then listed it during a period of a few days my email account unbeknown to me had gone belly up so never received my request to have it back. Was somewhat gutted at the time I must confess...
