If 'Blue' ever ended up on EBay, or a Pawn Shop, what would you pay for it?

[Justin1]

I'm watching Pawn Stars and imagined what they would pay for Blue of someone walked in with it.. I'm guessing it would go for $100,000. At least, that's what I'd pay for it if I had the money. 🙂 Any other ideas?

[Otis Big]

$20

no, wait. $30

[muscles90]

$ 30,000 - $ 50,000 

[Private Ale.]

if i was rich i would pay millions ,absolutely.

[Clean Cut Asshole]

Yeah, $100,000 seems fair for it right now. I don't think Blue would be sold until Billie died or something though, and that would up the value of it, obviously. So, if that happened, figure it'd be worth around $500,000 or so.

No way in hell it would go for that much haha

$8,000 max give or take

I can't think of any other guitars in rock music that are as well known, and Billie plays it every show.. It's gotta be worth more than 8k I'd think.

[BilIie Joe Armstrong]

I'd pay with a 2 dollar bill. 

[The Disappearing Boy]

£2.50 and a packet of crisps. Any flavour you like.

I get that people on this forum are die hard Green Day fans and would sell organs to buy this guitar but realistically speaking, this guitar has much less value than a guitar such as the first Jimi Hendrix guitar or something like that. Billie played the Everly Brothers guitar for a full tour and gave it to a fan, the value was only about a $1,000 higher than the original value. Honestly, this guitar is an icon for the pop punk scene but that doesn't mean its worth tonnes.

One of Hendrix's acoustics sold in December for £209,000.  Wouldn't expect Blue to fetch that much, but I'd certainly expect it to go for more than £8,000.

Some guy named BB King would disagree with that. 

[j3sus0fsuburbia]

I'd pay $1,039 Smoothed out/Slappy Dollars.

[St. Jonny]

The actual "Blue", hmm, something I'd def want being a die hard fan. Given the guitar and who owned it, I would say 6, 000. Just for all the history involved with it, it isn't an expensive guitar but since this is Billie's I'd pay 6 grand. Seven if it was signed and shit.

Lucille would disagree with that Blackie would also disagree with that

 I think it's a pretty recognizable guitar that even a casual fan would know what it is, and the history of it is pretty amazing. I'm sure if it was auctioned off, crazy rich fans like Zuckerburg would pay 100k plus! Just my opinion tho..

Because it's the best and healthiest kidney that has ever existed  

[Steven Seagull]

I think the original is priceless because it was guitar his mom bought to him by saving money working in the diner. You can't put a price on that.

He has an annoying habit of doing that.

I'm not saying I personally would pay this much, but considering this list of famous people guitars, if Billie dies and his guitar goes for sale, I'd say at least $250k. He's not as popular as the people on this list/not as "good" of a guitarist, plus a lot of GD fans are of the poorer kind, but again this is like his ONE guitar that he plays at every single show since he was 12 years old. If a guitar that was used by the Beatles a couple of times could go for $540k, I don't see why you couldn't get $250k for Blue.
