How much should I ask for?

Hi everyone!

Please note that I am not selling this sax through this subreddit, just asking for pricing advice!

I played the sax as a kid/teen but it's been gathering dust for 15 years now so I've decided to try to sell it.

Problem is, I have no idea what price range it's in. It's an Alt Yamaha (Yas-23?) with at least one previous owner, one of the buttons is bit weak and it's got a few scratches on it that, but that's all I know about it. I've seen similar ones priced anywhere between 150-800 euro so I'm a bit lost.

Does anyone know how much I could ask for?

Is it better to sell through somewhere like marketplace, or sell it to a music store?

Is it common for the seller do any maintenance/cleaning before selling or could I sell it "as is".

I don't expect to make a lot from selling it, but don't want to end up grossly undercharging by not knowing its worth. I'll be selling it with a hard and soft case but those would be included in the sax price.

Many thanks!
