Fair price for a PRS SE One Korina?

I've just recently learned of the PRS SE One. I'm really drawn to the simplicity of it. One great pickup, fixed bridge, one knob. I then saw a Korina and loved how it pays homage to the LP Jr in TV yellow. I saw a used non-Korina One on sale locally for $500ish but only see one used Korina for double that price. Is that what those are worth or is that stuck in the pandemic era pricing when everything was scarce? What would be a fair offer for one in good but not mint condition?

Welcome to the forum PaulReadsMyth! The forum discourages talk about pricing here (see below and at this link) ;~)) The general rule is, go to reverb and look up that model, then look at the price history. It is pretty cool that they have that (I think anyway) but it does NOT give you the final paid price in the graph, those prices (from what I understand) are what they were listed at, so a sale below or above list (due to an offer being made) would not be reflected in those numbers!

The graph in sales history is the final sold price. The breakdown has condition too. There are some glitches with it for local sales. Typically if you see a really high number mixed in that's a glitch or user error when closing the sale.

If you check the sold listing box for a filter on searches that does NOT show the sold price. Only the listed price when ended. It's eye opening the crackhead asking prices compared to the actual sold price. Especially when you can match up a sold listing to the sales history graph. Or heck, even some current listings.

I wish more people knew how to use the sales history. What's funny, it's not hard to find. Most listings have it about 3/4 the way down by clicking the model if the seller listed their guitar right.

I was actually just watching the Know Your Gear live stream either last week or the week before and someone mentioned that Reverb removed that sales history. It looks like I can't find it either so I'm wondering if it's officially gone. That sounds like it could be useful since I know the "sold only" filter shows what the last listed price was, not the actual price it was sold for.

Edit: Never mind, I found it like you said. By clicking into the model and seeing the info page on it. Thanks!

He’s ok, that refers to new pricing. Used is acceptable. Good looking out though!
 
Yeah I guess "fair" is whatever people on Reverb have been willing to play lately. A thousand bucks for the korina sounds crazy, though. I find them generally unimpressive. Don't sleep on the mahogany models. They rock!
