Accordion help/ info

[exit55]

Am looking at buying an accordion at an estate sale.  Trying to ID it (model, etc), so I can determine value.  Sorry I don't have picture but it looks like the De Vinci red accordion presently on Ebay for about $500.00. 

Where do I find the model number?  Have briefly played and it makes sounds,  Don't know how to play one.  Can only find this ONE on ebay with no completed sales.  If I buy, I plan to list on Ebay.

Any guidance is appreciated.

you mean Da Vinci, not De vinci?  There were hundreds of accordion makers in Italy in the mid 20th century. Most were produced by families as a cottage industry.  They can be a very hard sell unless by one of the more sought after companies.

do you realize you put this thread in the pottery, glass and porcelain group?

After I hit the enter key, I realized I had messed up.  Thanks for your reply.  

I posted to Collectables then.
