I am wanting to get an idea of what the market is like for a used Maz 18 MK II right now, but not many seem to get sold. If you have bought or sold one in 2021, please tell me when, what you paid or were paid for it, if it was a reverb or NR, combo or head, condition, and whether it was an original MK II or upgrade from a MK I. Thanks.

I bought a red 2014 1x12, MK2 NR combo about a month back, paid $1350. I drove to Houston to pick it up to save having to ship it, I'm about 80 miles from Houston.
Mint condition. IDK if it's a good price or not, I just know I wanted it, and I'm happy I bought it. I just finished building a combo cab for it, try it like that for a while. Nothing wrong with the combo, I just wanted to try it with my Marshall 4x12 for a while.

My first Z was a 18nr2 combo about 3 years ago from the SW Black Friday sale. Glad I got it and more than a few Z's later, still glad I got it.
I can't really help to your question, but it just seems like this stuff keeps going up and up on the used market. I've had my eye out for one discontinued model for a while now and it feels like whenever they do pop up, they are more money than they were sold for when new.

Mine was a mkii update on a heavy Maz 18 NR. I cleared $1050 on a cash and partial trade once I sold the gear I took in. I could have gotten more if I was patient and probably willing to ship. Not only did this deal get me cash quickly, but I got such a stupid good deal on my Maz 38 I didn’t care. I did my deal on Craigslist.

It seems odd that you guys got or paid so little. I was thinking of saving the Reverb fees by selling here or TGP, but this makes the fees seem worthy. The actual sold prices so far this year on Reverb are over $1700* for used Maz 18 R mkII combos, and the current listings are up around $2000 + shipping.
*edit- they were all over 1700, not 1800.

You can get a new one at Sweetwater's for $2,299 including shipping. $1,800+ for a used one makes no sense to me.

Go to reverb.com and check it out. Oh, and for the record, they're $2499 at Sweetwater. $1700 + ship is about a 28% depreciation, which isn't so outrageous for a Z. reverb.com/p/dr-z-maz-18-junior-reverb-mkii-18-watt-1x12-lt-guitar-combo#price-guide

My recent purchase of a maz18 2x10 with the upgrade and a brake lite and 2 Z foot switches in pristine condition was 1500 and worth the 6hr round trip drive. It was the 2x10’s that moved me from a Jetta or Ghia that was within my radar scope.

You can definitely get better deals if the seller is only willing to sell for local pickup, and you're close enough to make the drive. I've always been curious about how my maz would be with 2x10 instead of 1x12 or 2x12. I always figured it would be too stiff with 10's, but it would be very interesting to hear it with 2x10 and see.
