How much is my Seeburg Discotheque juke box worth? It's a fully functioning unit set to free play. I also have the service manual which I've used to maintain and keep the unit functioning. In addition I have the timing 45, but not the service timing light.

Jukeboxes are very expensive to ship and most private sellers list their boxes as 'local pick up only' but this means the final value will depend on the market in your area - maybe a 100-mile radius.
There are 2 machines that appear to be similar but in actuality, you cannot compare the value with a 'similar' model jukebox.
The similar jukebox is model LPC 1 (1962) and yours is LPC 480 (1963-1954).
This model LOC 480 sold for $30 in June, 2011.

it is difficult to provide a value as each area of the country will be entirely different and you may have to test the market in your area.
You could list your box at a high price - $4,000 - with best offers considered and local pick-up.
You will need to have several very good pictures and a good description.
List it on sites like Craigslist, Facebook marketplace (for sure), OfferUp, VarageSale, and any others you are familiar with.
Leave the listing active for several weeks/months and if no offers are received, then lower the price and wait again.
Review some of the current listings on eBay to see how other sellers are listing their boxes.
You have Seeburg Jukebox Model LPC480DT.
Seeburg started the so-called 'Console Era' in 1962, when the LPC1 Console began production. The other manufacturers soon followed suit with their versions.This era lasted until 1968, ending with the LS2 Gem. I suppose it could be argued that all machines built after 1961 could be considered the 'Console Era', since all machines followed this styling concept.
LPC480T 480 Console, in orange, called 'burnt tangerine' by Seeburg has 160 selections, 33 RPM native, 45 RPM with Auto-Speed engaged.
Introduced in May, 1964.
Model LPC480DT is a discotheque model, has an added switch in the rear, which when in the Disco position, would only play those records in the pre-defined Disco groups (for the non-Disco machines, these same groups defined the album groups and controlled how the now-playing indicator worked - if an album, only the 'A' side indicator lit, otherwise, the current play side indicator lit). The Disco version also had another amplifier, the TSA3 installed rather than the TSA1. The only difference between amplifiers is a couple of miscellaneous connectors. Part of the Disco kit was a selection of external speaker systems, which were quite well designed and built, featuring Altec-Lansing horns and Utah Woofers.
