Fair price for used Vandersteen 3a Signatures

Curius if anyone has an opinion on what a pair of excellent condition Vandersteen 3a Signatures should run? The 3a Signatures have had some price hikes over th years while retaining the same branding/labeling.   Different from the model 2's which seem to have a branding update to signify component upgrades and pricing increases.

Thanks

Thank you Kota1.

I'm trying to decide between a new pair of 2CE Signature III's and a 10-year-old pair of well taken care of 3A signatures.  Looking through the listing it seems the 3a signature sold market ranges from $1800 - $3000 depending on age.

I used to have a pair of 2Ce Signature's so I'm familiar with the sound.

 2Ce sigs are more popular speakers and you can have luck of getting those from the estate sales for around $300...500. Harder to get 3a's, but the link provided by kota1 shows non-sig model and they've been listed for nearly half-year at bellow $1k so offering around $750...850 for'm will probably get you settled and after that you can get Sig mod kit to upgrade x-over. 

I hit estate sales more than once on both of these models, but since I'm not real fan of those Vandys I only purchased those to flip.
