What's a fair price for a Peavey Royal 8?

[Southpaw Tele]

I've been looking for one of these to get into the tube world (after 11 years of playing). What's a fair price for a used one in excellent condition? I know that new, they go for $199.00. Any thoughts?

Is it totally stock or have the tubes/speaker been changed out?... If not I would say no more than $130 since you'll probably want to change out the stock Sh!te speaker Peavey puts in it. I love my Royal8. It is a great little practice amp, but I did change out the speaker and put a nice Sovtec el84/and 12ax7 in it.

Yeah, the one I'm looking at is completely stock and looks like new. Good to hear you like yours. It's my first venture into "total tube" land (getting rid of a Vox AD30VT).
