Default instrument value? +selling advice needed

Hi,

I bought a violin in 1997 that was valued at $3200, how much should I look to sell it for now, assuming it's in the same condition? It was made in '96 so "antique value" isn't really a factor either. But I assume there's little to no depreciation in value for an instrument like this?

Also, what would be the best (speed is a priority as I kind of need the money) way to go about looking to sell it? I am kind of new to this if you can't tell lol.

Thanks for any help/advice

Ebay.....or Craigslist.com...

Don't pawn it, those people rip you off like you wouldn't believe. Put an ad in your local classified's magazine or newspaper....or like I said, Ebay or Craigslist.

I wouldn't trust Ebay with that kinda cash, I say put adds in newspapers and maybe ask other violin players you know how much they think it's worth
