Thanks Pards,

Condition, condition, condition.  It is ALL about condition.

 

Start with $300 for poor condition, work up to as much as $750 for great condition.     So much depends upon full pictures of the guns and an examination of what works well and does not work well on a particular gun.

 

But, you have provided us almost nothing to estimate either of those pricing guides.  

 

 Good luck, GJ

G. Joe is right again.  Excellent 1950s 97s bring $750-800. and sometimes even more (I've paid $1K) and poor guns start around $300 -- as he says.

Price them $100 more  (or generally 20% more) than you would take as a final offer.  Seems a lot of folks use that kind of pricing strategy.

Out of curiousity, how long is the barrel on the mismatched 97?

The ‘52 is the one with the recoil pad?  Can you tell if the butt stock was cut for it, or was it just added onto the end?
