Truthfully, I don't know.
He has had the B3 in a box for some time and is an aftermarket Hammond/Organ dealer in Orlando, Florida.
He has used it to promote his business, but is moving his business. He will probably put it
on e-bay, but to sell it for the best realistic price to his advantage. He asked me what I thought
it was worth in the market and I told him I was not sure, but that I would ask around. He is
a business man who has a good reputation, but runs his business every day.. I am retired, so
I have time to ask (stupid) questions and collect answers. I also own two Hammonds and might even
buy a third if my wife doesn't put her foot down. I just am interested in what fellow Hammond owners
and lovers think the "right person" would pay for a brand new tone-wheel B3S?

Here's the 64 thousand dollar question.

HOW could anyone have such a sweet piece and NOT PLAY IT.

Thinking about it, to get the best price, perhaps it should go through one
of the big auction houses. You know the type of place that will sell the
Van Gogh you find when clearing out Granny's loft. If you're thinking
$50,000 possibly $100,000 you're not going to put it on eBay!! Just how
rare is a 30 year old Hammond still in the packing crate?

Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be
replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. Douglas Adams

Yes, KEI has it... it is no secret. The box is there for viewing right
in the store. As I said, he (Jim) is moving and would now like to sell it,
but for the best possible price. He asked me about price and I told him, and
also told him I would try to get an average figure. I find it intersting
with all our proximity, that no one will venture a figure. For something for
you all to jump on, I told him I would not sell it for less than $50,000.00
That a true collector would pay that figure.. the problem would be to locate
the true collector. I also told him that he would have to send a tech with
it to unpack it and carefully check it out..add gradual power, look for
smoke, etc. But, for that kind of money he could afford to do that. Two
other people have told me my figure is too low and it could go for
$100,000.00 Now what do you think???

I am a true Hammond collector, I have collected 10 Hammonds over the last
few years. So speaking as a collector, I would not pay more than 5,000. The
reason for this is ALL hammond collectors are bargain hunters a.k.a.
CHEAP!!!!
Haha, In all honesty i think 15,000 is even a little over the top, but an
acceptable asking price. What the owner should do is ask for offers and see
if he gets what he wants, maybe some sort of an auction. Hell put it on Ebay
and watch the insanity unfold.
Cheers,
Ronnie

Ron,
Would you admit to being cheap?
With all the comments, I am finding two schools of thought on this and cannot disagree with either one.
All of you make you arguments on good reasoning.

Frankly I think that kind of money for even aB-3 is NUTS!
I do love the organ,but,you could buy a house for that much,cash on the
barrel.

It was posted by a well known Hammond dealer in the States.

Well YES, I am cheap. Only because everytime I spend a lot of money on
something, I find the same item for way cheaper a little while later. Now I
just wait for the deals.
Loves a good bargain,

Hi Ron,
Yes, I know the feeling... and if you wait .. all will come your way.. I have to agree. It is the waiting that
is painful... so you buy it anyway...And, there is nothing wrong with being CHEAP. So, many just won't
admit it. You are an honest person.
