Given the clownish things that I and many others did to old Marshalls decades ago I actually buy the reissues by choice these days. There is a perhaps a touch of extra romance in owning an original, but that's of little interest to me when it comes to a gigging machine.

I reckon the OP could find an original one £200 under that if he's prepared to be patient. I'm not sure the originals have gone up in the last 12 months. I bought my 2204 (dated 1984) for £600 about 12 months ago. I'd be lucky to see £500 for it in the current market.
Go back 2 years and it wasn't uncommon to see original 2203's going for close to a grand. Not now, £600 is a more realistic amount. It's a buyers market.

I saw a load around a grand when I was looking last year. Might pay to be patient, or try and get the re-issue for a better price.!!
Whats a good price for the re-issue??
