Seems anything DiBin is scarce and desireable. I have as of yet not been successful locating one for sale or having been sold so I can form a baseline. I'd really hate to sell it for $100 when in fact it was worth $1000. Anyone seen one for sale or seen one sold?? Appreciate any input.

Just off the top of my head, and I’m super sick right now…I’d say a normal 9” Elio picklock is about $750. Great horn and great condition will make it more.

Elio made so many models, the more rare and obscure like a ring pull or fulcrum or topless bolster model, the more it could be worth.
