Establish a fair price

Work through this with me, step by step, and write each answer down in Assist With Buying as you go.

1. Identify the thing precisely enough that a comparable means something — maker, model, size, era, material. If two similar items differ in a way that changes value, say which way. [save this as: finding]
   (Skipping this is why most price research is wrong: the comparables are for a different object.)
2. Find results that actually SOLD, not active listings. Auction results, closed sales, completed listings. Record each one with its date and its source. [save this as: observation]
   (An asking price is what someone wants. A sold price is what someone got. Never record one as the other.)
3. Adjust each comparable for condition, completeness and what it would cost to collect it. State the adjustment, don't bury it in the number. [save this as: observation]
4. Note what you could not find out, and what would change the answer if you learned it. [save this as: question]
   (An honest gap is more useful than a confident guess.)
5. State a range, not a point. Say how many sold comparables it rests on and over what period. [save this as: decision]
6. Say plainly how confident you are and why. If the evidence is thin, say the evidence is thin. [save this as: decision]

Guardrail: Never present a price as an appraisal. Two sold comparables from four years ago is not a market; say so rather than averaging it into false precision.

Tell me in chat what you saved and give me the direct link. If a step does not apply here, say so and skip it rather than inventing an answer.
