    Did you check eBay sold listings? Always a much better indication than active listings.

    Somewhere between 200-250, with ~220 being the median.

    yeah i checked the sold listings but they are pretty variable, specially with best offers being accepted, and i knew you guys would be a better judge of where the pricing is at 

    so you reckon £180 is a fair price if i was to sell it on ?

    180 would be a bargain for the buyer.
    I would ask 220 bit accept 200. But expect a cheeky offer of 180..

    I sold mine recently for £200, I perhaps could have for more if I was patient

    (this was pre Brexit, prices have gone up a lot since!)

    You can buy one new for £270 & that includes a warrenty. The general rule of thumb is an item loses a third of it's value the moment it leaves the shop. The next buyer obviously also doesn't benefit from any warrenty.

    That said, market demand can also have an impact. So £180 is new price less a third and that would be thereotically correct. However, if all second hand pedals are selling for £210 because of the demand then that is the new going rate.

    Other factors that effect price will be competition; how many others are available s/h, and also the seller's need to shift it; do they need to move it on quickly?

    Hope that helps.
