New Yamaha RBX5 A2

Hmmm. I'm thinking of picking one of these up from my local CL. What's a good price range for one that's described as "in awesome condition, no dings or anything, plays and looks awesome. Its got great sound and active pickups"

They were being blown out at $269.00 or so a while back. So I'd say $150 maybe, even better if it's got a case.
 
Hi
I stuck between Squier Deluxe Jazz Bass V-RBXa2 5 and SR505 i couldnt try them cause my local stores doesnt have them.And they all almost same price here(i'll grab a used one).
High mids some punchy sound but not that much. What would you recommend? Rbx has passive jazz pick ups i think they might work for me but i dont know..

The rxb5 is a really good bass. It's ultra lightweight and the pickups are excellent, it sounds better than a jazz bass any day the week
