Is there are sudden increase in the value of Mark 1s especially for the seller?. Usual starting price is $1,200 to $3,000! Not a typo!

I have a arsenal rebuild of 1942 that is reblued and possibly restocked. SN 1186691. Bore is frosty but shoots well. Has original Hoyt 42 sling. 1942 barrel.

I am thinking of letting this one go but has anybody sold one lately locally? Gander offered me about $400.00 as their used gun pricing has changed to 40% of the Blue Book price rather than the 60% they had before. I am not that dumb!

I figure $1,000 would be a good starting price. I do not have any images of the rifle right now as I just want to see what others may have sold one for or have seen them offered. Not a lot of Mark 1s on the internet right now that I could find. THANKS!
