In the UK, CZ-1 prices vary quite a bit. I bought mine 3.5 years ago for £120. I've seen tatty examples with issues go for as low as £60 or so, and this very clean example (below) sold yesterday for £181.66

And here's one currently for sale for £285 BIN:

Ironically, it's the least powerful CZ, the 101, that consistently sells for the higher prices. Probably because of it's cute size and the fact that it can sound WAY more powerful than it looks. That and the fact that most home musicians have space issues, and it fits into a bedroom studio a lot more easily than the full size CZ's!http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171338897032?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Probably worth noting the value of these synths is only going to increase with time. They might not be entirely in fashion right now but give it a few years and I can almost guarantee they will become the vintage collectors items they deserve to be!On Mon, Jun 2, 2014 at 4:40 AM, Paul paul.krull@...

I bought a CZ 1 in the Seattle area about a year ago for $125. I bought a CZ 5000 on the same day for $100 but needed to replace a key and batteries and reload patches. There's a CZ 3000 locally for $100 but it needs a key replaced. I think there's a ton of CZ s out there, maybe not so many CZ 1s but they are not fetching high prices.Paul T

I agree with W. James Meagher. Checking completed auctions on Ebay, prices were from $490 (with 3 cartridges) to $152 I didn't check the shipping charges however. Don't sell what you love. Of course, I confess I am apparently unable to sell even the synths I don't love. I may have a problem!
