Model No 43267. Excellent condition. Includes case, reeds, and clarinet.
Handed down from grandparent.
Thank you for contacting Mearto. This is a French made 1950 Henri Selmer Super Balanced Action alto saxophone. At auction, these tend to sell for between $5,000 and $15,000. A model from 1950 in good condition will go for the higher end of that range. The Fair Market Value of this instrument is between $10,000 and $15,000.
The FMV estimate is only for the saxophone, not for the other instrument. Do you have more information about the clarinet-- brand, age, condition?
Hi Paul,
The item is automatically listed on our marketplace if you clicked 'looking to sell' when submitting the appraisal. From my end, I believe you did since I see the box for 'suggested asking price.' You can see more details about the marketplace terms at https://mearto.com/consign.
Basically, if customers click ‘looking to sell’ and the item is appraised at over $50 and under $4999, this is how it works: The item is on the marketplace for 30 days. If a dealer is interested, they will contact you via email. At that point, it is up to you to accept their offer or not, or negotiate a price. You should be able to edit my ‘suggested asking price’ on your end if you wish.
The listing itself is free for you. If there is a sales transaction, we take 7%. If the item sells, you are responsible for shipping. If it doesn’t sell in 30 days, you can contact us at [email protected] for more options if you’re interested.
As to the clarinet, I zoomed in and saw ‘Strasser.’ Without more information, my quick estimate for the value is around $400 to $500. If you’d like to submit it as a separate appraisal, that might be the best way to go, so that it makes sense when the item is on the marketplace.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thank you very much. I do not have any additional information about the clarinet.
If I wanted to sell this item through Mearto, what would be my next steps?
