The date on the listing is Nov 23. It looks like a JP273.. The list price is $1400. I think if anyone is interested @bloke could probably make a pretty competitive offer for a new instrument.

EDIT:CORRECTED BELOW IS JP373 not 273

That instrument is gold brass and "Sterling" is easily visible - so it is a 373, and not a 273 (gold brass, and much fancier case).

WERE it a 273 (yellow brass), I would ask only slightly more than that (new).

...but - again - it is a 373 "Sterling" (gold brass). That's a good price for a new-condition/used, but (and I can't zoom the pictures...they're malfunctioning on fb - at least on my laptop) I'm seeing dents, yes?

The way I see it, it just depends on
- whether it's dented (again: I'm only seeing the thumbnail versions of the pictures)
- if there are dents (as I believe I'm seeing) the price depends on how much denting bothers any individual potential buyer.

Do I sell stuff new for way under M.A.P. with shipping included ?
I'm not going to publicly admit whether I do or not.
