Hello, I have young friend who just got married and purchased an old farm house in Western NY and while diving around in the old barn he found a vise. I am a wood worker and hobby blacksmith and some machining, so he gave me a call and asked me the value of the vise. He is trying to restore his old house and would like to sell it but has no idea where to start on pricing. He sent me some pics and it turns out to be a 7” x7” HEUER bench vise from around the 30s in pretty good shape. I’m thinking in the $1200 range but I may be way out of line as I am not a vise guy. ![9BE83356-2CB8-483C-A3B5-47FEC6A3B634.jpeg 9BE83356-2CB8-483C-A3B5-47FEC6A3B634.jpeg](https://www.hobby-machinist.com/data/attachments/230/230933-705f4ce78b1103c868bccca94a0a1088.jpg)

Any help you can give us would be great. I don’t want to see this young kid get ripped of by some rust dealer who know his stuff.
Thanks for your time.
