Steel "Blue Book"

Post by Brian Nelson »

Hi,
Does anyone publish a sort of "blue book" that would include lap steel fair market prices? It's always too easy to get caught up in Ebay frenzy! Thanks!

There really isn't a Blue Book for lap steel prices, mostly because up until recently there hasn't been much of a demand for lap steels.
"Real World" pricing depends on too many variables to be worthwhile, in my opinion. A lap steel may cost more in San Francisco, CA than in San Antonio, TX.
