The table below charts microphone sales activity. Reported prices are based on routine monitoring of web based electronic auction sites such as eBay™ and others, as well as buyer or seller reports from private sales. Variables with affect final selling price include, but not limited to, physical condition (i.e., paint, broken or missing parts, scratches or dings, etc.), operational condition, and included or excluded OEM accessories (i.e., cable, stand and/or stand clip, box and/or case, etc.).
Sales data is usually updated on a weekly basis. 
image indicates this sale price was higher than the previously reported RECENT sale; 
indicates this sale price was lower than the previously reported RECENT sale. A 
symbol denotes a new record HIGH in selling price; a 
image denotes a new record LOW in selling price. If the microphone you're looking for is not listed yet be patient; the reported information will improve with age, which is something that I can't say about myself.
