Vigil pricing

[elias123 0]

Hi there!

I'm about to sell a Vigil 1 from December 2006 to a friend of mine, but I don't really know what to ask for it. I do have a price in mind, but I don't know if it's a reasonable amount. How much do you think I could/should ask for a Vigil 1 from december 2006 (ballpark)? I did a few searches, but didn't find what I was looking for. Thanks in advance! Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Blues!

How does this sound.
20 year life on a vigil for $1299
= $65 per year
yours is 3.5 years old so 1299 - 227 = 1072.
Maybe a bit less seeing as its a vigil 1.
Also depends on how old the battery is in yours. hope this helps.

It sure does :) I was thinking something along the lines of 800 USD (650 EUR). Since the battery's life span is 4 years, it has six months left. Also because, like you say, it's a Vigil 1, I'll knock of some dough for that, and also because I'm selling it to a friend. But at least now I know that the amount I had in mind is not at all unreasonable and that I'm not ripping of my buddy :) Thanks for your reply dude!

The Battery is longer then that now. The Manual, the website and the FAQ all have different times on them but the site has a note that the battery is good for 10 years at max and at min you need to change it when it tells you to.

Hmmm, weird. I'll have to ask my rigger to take a good look at that issue then I guess. Still sounds safest to me to change the battery's when the Vigil will be installed in my buddy's rig, just to be on the safe side. Thanks for your input!
