Mosrites do have thin necks and frets, some like that for speed. Those used to
bigger, spacier fretting do not care for this Mosrite feature.
Like anything else, it all depends on how well the guitar was taken care of. I
have played some vintage Mosrites that were mint, played and sounded like new.
I've also seen my share of train wrecks that have been beat to shit. Not every
Mosrite is the same, they were mostly hand made one at a time so the differences
can vary greatly.
I've also seen the train wrecks sell for much more than you mention. These
guitars would probably be worth more to a collector than functional.
Depending on model/year and condition, vintage Mosrites will sell between $3,500
& $5,000! Maybe more.
Disclaimer, this is not a guarantee, many variables. just my 2 cents

I have a question for you Mosrite players. Are the older Mostrites good or
what?
About six years ago a funky clothing store in town had a bunch of vintage gear
in the
back. They had what appeared to be three vintage Mostrites for about $700 to
$1000.
Don't remember the models, but they played pretty bad. Really thin frets, thin
necks,
didn't feel very well made. I must be missing something here, please help the
uninformed...
