Need some pricing advice

Post by Wodathunkit »

I'm selling a Ruger P90 (.45 ACP) handgun to a friend of mine, I want to give him a good price, but something fair for me also. I bought it new in '94, at Wallyworld for $455.00. Got the case, original paperwork, and two mags, plus I've got some bullets for him (100 rds)

The only prices I can find online are "post hysteria" and I don't think they are fair. I can't figure out how to post a picture from my iPad but its in good shape. Any thoughts?

You're an upstanding guy not wanting to bend your friend over in these dire times. :biggrinjester:

I had been looking at the same model for a while and the prices I saw were $400 (pretty beat up) up to $600 for original box, couple clips, ammo and holsters. This is from a couple trade websites and local shops selling trade-ins.

Sell it to him for what you feel is right. Nobody should feel guilty for selling a weapon at the market value. It may be worth more a year from now than it is today.
