Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds What's it worth

Just me, or is there a whole slew of posts "asking" what something is worth these days? Maybe we should start a new section for Dutch auctions.

True

Best to reply twice real value. Saves fave from being called a fire lowballer. Also stimulates the failing economy, you know the dumb [bleep] asking the question has already financed twice fake vale.

Did you steal wabi’s keyboard?

Nope, but if he is like minded, I will send him a friend request 👍

Right?? I was totally thinking about asking what my dust collecting Remington Model 7 25th Anniversary edition in 7mm-08 was worth with less than a box of ammo through it and a Vortex Diamondback 3-9 scope on it when I read the 7mm-08 was losing favor and value and Model 7's was down to less than $700.00.

Then I went on Gunbroker and saw a completed sale for said gun for $3200.00 in October.

While it appears some of these "What's it worth?" are fishing expeditions for a gun you used to be able to buy from Walmart, some rarer models and calibers are harder to gauge value and a Dutch auction is like a "What's it worth to you at this time?" and not too much different than a "WTB" ad. I'd hate to see some of the offerings by PM that a WTB add would generate.

Or you could sell it on GB and avoid the BS. Totally your call, but you're gonna catch some schidt for doing it here, as you should....

To be clear, I don't GAF what people sell their schit for. Just seems schitty to "ask" what things are worth. Post up a price and sell your wares or don't. Just don't be a puzzy and ask what it's "worth" in hopes that you get a PM war over pricing.
