Re The Heritage Valve Organ, There are a number of electronic problems due to the age of this fine instrument, i would say that if you could find an immaculate model in mint condition it would probably fetch upwards of £750. a model in average condition but playable should fetch around £500. In There day they were a great Jazz organ and still rock, especially with a suitable Leslie.
I just paid $75 at thrift store for mine, it is mint condition.
Hello there, I hope that this will answer your question. Many years ago in the 1970's, i was lucky enough to be able to go the the many organ dealers in the area of England that I lived in and look at and try out the various organs. At that time, many organ manufacturers such as Lowrey, Conn, Farfisa, Viscount, Hammond and of course Gulbransen, had their cabinets made of REAL WOOD. This made the organs very heavy. Also at that time there was a theory that once you had bought an organ, and played it for a while, the organ tone would mature as the cabinet aged. Even later organs by organ makers Lowrey, which had the less heavy circuit boards, and modern modern electronic magic STILL made there cabinets out of solid heavy wood. I hope this answers your question. Actually, I like a heavy organ as I am 6 foot 2 inches, and when I play, I like my organ to be stable, and not rock about like some of the cheaper asian models. My organs have been, a Thomas color-glow, Lowrey citation Spinet, Lowrey Coronation, Lowrey MX1, (A light Yamaha HC4 which could be transported easily) and my current organ a Technics GX5 which I have had for 7 years (And is heavy). You may like to hear me plying it on my YouTube channel "2009RobinC" Best wishes Robin

In excellent cosmetic and working condition, a Lowrey Genie 98 would be worth about $50 - $125 in today's market (November 2013). If it's near mint and comes with a bench, you could potentially make as much or more, assuming you can find a buyer. The Genie series organs are a consumer or -home-market organ, made to be inexpensive in the first place, and not particularly sought after today. For every Genie I've seen sell, I've seen plenty more shuffled off to the local Goodwill or, worse, curbside pickup.
Peanuts Lowrey was born on August 27, 1917 and died on July 2, 1986. Peanuts Lowrey would have been 68 years old at the time of death or 97 years old today.
Your best, least expensive bet for selling a Lowrey Genie 98 organ would be to deal locally using a site like Craigslist, eBay Classifieds or placing an ad in your local Penny Saver (or similar publication). You might also find a used organ dealer or consignment shop to help you move this on to its next home - the fees for any of these options will vary. Keep in mind, that even in great condition, the Genie 98 is neither a very valuable nor sought after model (at least as of November 2013), so it's unlikely you'd find a buyer willing to pay for freight charges to ship this not-so-portable unit to any place outside your local area. At least, if you do, it may not be worth it for the money. Of course, you could get lucky and find just the right person at just the right moment; it's just less likely on low end, consumer organ like this.
There are about 9 different versions of the 1894 Daisy. The standard version was made between 1961-86 and NIB it would be worth $125. however if it is a commemorative model it would be worth more. If it's Sears, JC Higgins model it would be worth less.
An M-3 Hammond organ, that is in good condition, can sell for around $300-$400. There are a variety of Hammons of eBay. Some have sold for less and others for more.
If your Winchester model 1200 is a standard field model,it is worth between 400-600 dollars depending on condition.It would be worth more depending on the grade.
It would be worth between 200-275 dollars.
