What do you think they are worth? Mine is a 2004, I bought used on Ebay , with Epi case for $260, which I thought was a steal. I originally bought one back in 04, but sold it years ago. I had since bought 2 of the "newer" faded EPI SG's...but they felt and sounded nothing like that Korean model. I just didn't bond with those..and found my Korean epi on ebay when someone missplelled..EPYPHONE...lol.
Just curious what do you think they are worth.

I think they are worth whatever someone is willing to pay. Depends on where you try to sell it too. You didn't have an unusual deal at $260.

Just sold my 1998 Korean Epiphone SG-G400 for $200 CND and it was a great one.

$260 is just about dead middle. I saw one fetch $300 a couple of years ago. I paid $180 for mine, three years ago. Agree, they feel and play great.

I just picked up one of the 1961 50th anniversary SG Specials with bound neck and P-90s for $229+S&H&T ~$270

I consider it to be one of the better Chinese made SGs out there. So yeah $260 sounds about typical for a Korean w/ binding seems reasonable.
