Seen this on ebay, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171537867730? ... EBIDX%3AIT

He wants 3k, think this is a bit steep, after one to go with my aerospace. What would you value this B1 at??

Cheers

Hiya,

It's at least a thousand pounds too expensive.

I'd be leaning towards £2k in reality. I guess it's how much you want one!!!

Good luck finding one at the right price for you.

How much a B1 is worth can be easily determined from ebay completed auctions site.
It being a Vulcan edition makes little extra value to most buyers. One or two buyers may have an orgasm or two but many others just want a B1.
So ultimately it is down to HOW MUCH the seller is asking for it but HOW MUCH YOU are willing to pay for it and how badly do you want it ;-)

Honestly, most buyers are not likely to pay a significant premium for a special dial edition that has little personal added value to them, even if it happens to be fairly limited in volumes.

Of course, I could be very wrong (in about 25 years time)

In the region of 2k i would say too, thats still quite a lot more than a standard one of that vintage , i had one and let it go for quite a bit less than that a few years ago . Ironically when new a lot of mili editions in runs of 50, like the sea harrier B1 , were sold at quite a hefty discount to the group buyers. Like hundreds less than you would pay for a standard one. The vulcan edition was sold to the public though.
