How Much Is this 1970's Palmer worth?

Looks like a $250 Gandy. Perhaps, A.E. Schmidt or National.

I have an A.E. Schmidt that is similar, but I don't think yours is a Schmidt.
Your picture is not the greatest, but it looks like the pin is different than the ones I've seen on Schmidt cues from that era.

Not a Palmer. He is correct...it's a Gandy Cue.
Nice survivor for an old Gandy,
I had one a little fancier without the original shaft and sold it for $150, and I threw in a carom shaft that fit nicely so it had two shafts
The guy I sold it to is refinishing the cue himself, and come to think about it he hasn't paid me for it

There is a post about what is probably this cue from 2012 on here

A guy had a Gandy for a very good price in my local Craigslist maybe a year ago but must have read something on here because a post about a Gandy popped up and the guy's price more than doubled LOL
I think his was close to $50 then went to $250.
Carom shafts were actually available for these. If you find one with an original pool shaft and an original carom shaft you have a rare bird indeed.
Also, they originally came with two shafts.
I have one of this exact model with two original shafts in gold pearl instead of red.

Oh no, you didnt take the cash????
Always remember, pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.
I read on here one time that guys who are selling / buying should be upfront and honest.. he should have told the guy.. you're offering to much just give me $ 250.00 and we are good....

When I said take the money I was being facetious.
Personally, I think the cue is worth more than $250 anyway.
I would start talking at $350. That's $100 for each shaft and $150 for the butt.
Of course condition has a great deal to do with it.
Personally, I would not sell mine for $350.
$250 would be the best buddy price IMHO.

Finding people that owe me money is the easy part.
Getting paid while squeezing blood from a turnip, takes a lot of practice.
