Best .357 ever made. For that price, it would have to be absolutely unfired and NIB. This one sounds like "appears unfired" and it doesn't have the box. $700 tops.
I would pass on this one. Pricing S&W revolvers can be far from easy. For example 686 .357 with 7-shot cylinder pre-MIM parts (ca. 1995 to early 1997) would be desirable and worth a premium.

I bought one from a co worker in 1994 for $250. I sold it to another co worker for $250.
I miss that gun.

I still have a no dash 6 inch nickle plated one ,guess I will keep it till I die even though I haven't shot it in close to 40 years. Think I was around 20 years old when I bought it.
Good looking accurate revolver. Still loaded with one of 3 boxes of 125 Grain Hollowpoints I bought when I bought the revolver.
As far as price goes on the one you looked at,if it is what you want buy it. You probably wont make any money if you sell it but as far as keeping I would rather for the most part have an older one than a newer one if its has not been abused..
