Thinking way over priced but, whatever the market will bear. I have a dozen old Ambassadors some never used in the boxes. My problem was I worked at a tackle shop. Now I remember why I never brought a paycheck home from there. May have to cash in on my investments at these prices.
See my hint below for guessing value in another post on this thread. If you have Ambassadors, 'new in box', this appears to raise the value on eBay.
Note that the Ambassadeur reels the earn more on sale are the ones with "Made in Sweden" stamped on. them. All the others ("S" models) are made in China and do not have much resale value. They also do not hold up to the rigors of fishing.
Prices for new C3 and C4 reels, which are made in Sweden seem to be hovering around $130 - 200 with a wide range of values for the same models. Hint, you may, at times, find better prices on Amazon.

I just checked and this reel is still available with the same number of watchers. I am guessing people are watching just to see if the reel actually gets sold. It has been more than a month since my original post.
