They offered me £1500 and £200 less for the GS, I think thats the thing that has put me off it being a Quartz..

The secondhand market has definitely really dropped off and I suspect that dealers are sitting on a lot more stock than previously, so aren't that interested in adding to it unless they get it in on a real low ball figure. Just to be extra cheery, I'm not sure I see demand/values picking up any time soon either given the general economic outlook. There are dealers who'll sell on consignment - if you don't mind waiting for the money, maybe they could be worth a try?

There are quite a few BB58s that have sold on ebay for no more than £2k which is about £1750 to the seller. It might just be that the market has cooled somewhat and/or saturated.
But I'm sure your dealer would still fancy their chances selling one sooner than a quartz GS (as nice as quartz GS are).
