For a Dobro brand (without knowing the year) that price should be okay... I sold a 79 metalbody dobro to a dealer in England for $800US at a recent guitar show here... They used to bring a bit more, but there are so many Chinese resonators that meet the needs of those with a casual interest, the market has been weaker on the Dobro brand guitars, IMO... Hope that helps.
