I have a 1967 Seeburg SS1601 that is in excellent condition. It still plays great. I am looking to sell it and wanted to figure out its value. Can you advise?

One sold for $1500 www.palmettojukebox.com/
The same jukebox on Ebay,is going for (asking price) $1,215.99
My best suggestion is to find a person or place that will buy it from you to sell.
This particular model is all over the price in value from $200-$1500, and there are so many variables that only an experienced seller can tell you where yours is in the span. The value is also location dependent. In some places there are a glut of these so the value is low. Where there are few, the value goes up.
Collectors want all original parts, the manual, original music etc. Any deviation drops the value. Also dropping the value is smells (like if it came from a bar and smells like smoke--that drops the value, cracks in the glass, nicks on the case).
You don't mention where you are located so I will give you a place I like to window shop to start to find a pro to sell it for you:

If you scroll to the bottom, there is a line about buying these items.
Post back how you do with yours! There is still a market in some places and there is always a market if you wanted to disassemble it and sell it off for (tested) parts. People want the original parts to repair their project jukes...real parts are hard to come by so often times a disassembled machine can fetch 2-3 times of what you would get for the machine as is. We live in a weird world!
