Wanted 1\2 size laminated bass

Hi,

My 1/2-sized bass is a Schuster, a hybrid with a carved top, perhaps 30 years old, with Spirocore Orch. strings and a good bridge.
It has a lot of sound for its size, a lot of fingerboard left, and a gig bag (useful around the house until Junior starts gigging).
It has a crack below the f-hole on the bass side, but I'm told it'd be easily repairable for about $100.
The bass is in California, but I know a dealer who ships a lot of basses and knows how to pack-and-ship.
Would you consider an out-of-state transaction? If so, what would be a reasonable price?
Thanks.

There is this one http://cleveland.craigslist.org/msg/4793806646.html I will be in the Cleveland area today and tomorrow (and back almost weekly) if I can assist you.

 

Here is another one http://chicago.craigslist.org/wcl/msg/4804611557.html

 

Have decided to list mine on Craigslist in Los Angeles, asking $750.
Will pay for shipping!

 

For what it's worth, I just read that the dimensions of my bass make it actually a 1/4 size!
These figures are approximate:
Height (from bottom edge to top of scroll): 61"
Height of body - bottom edge to neck: 37"
upper bout (shoulders): 17"
mensure (string length, from nut to bridge): 35"

(Bob Gollihur's website says that a 1/2-size bass is only slightly larger:
65" tall,
40" body,
18" shoulders,
and 38" mensure)

Thanks.
