Hello friends I have several items I'm going to sell as a package deal and I wanted to ask y'all what's a fair price. I don't like how some people think there parts come with magic and most are how do you say ?
All original NOS C-Tab Sling with the Rounded Slide.and a IN marked Oiler, 5 USMC Dated Pouches on a USMC Utility 5 Snap Belt with 10 NOS Mags. The Bluing is Outstanding. If you have any questions contact me. I can swap out parts.
Long time no see Frank, good to see you back. As for prices, I should think looking at local sales sites might be better, as prices where I am will be way off. Maybe look at a site like Gunbroker?
Good to see you Jim, I did that GunBroker thing, but it was all over the place and people are just asking way too much. I just want to be fair.
$650 would be a fair asking price for all.
Thank You Sapper for your input, I like that number. You don't think that's a little too much ?Quote:

$45 each for the mag pockets ($225)
$45 for the belt
$45 for the oiler
$110 for the sling
$40 each magazine ($400)
Thank You guys, Then I suppose around that number with my discount it should fly. thank y'all for the input my friends
Hi Frank, I read your post when it came out yesterday and did some thinking about - decided not to respond right away. This morning, I thought $500 might work - especially if you have local gunshows in your area that are held periodically with a "Military" theme. Get a table and you likely could sell it quickly as a package. Midway sold a lot of those magazines for $100 each just a couple years ago. Glad to see you back! - Bob
Wow, I knew things had changed but that's ridiculous...huge. Those mags went for a buck a round here before they had to be blocked to fives. Now you don't see them anyway.Quote:

BoB, How have you been doing my friend ? I know I been away for good while and I assure you I wasn't traveling. I did try to get ahold of you a couple of times. It's really good to see you my friend I hope all is well with you. Talk with you soon.Quote:

Hello Frank, Good to know your OK.
Listing the Maker Marks on the Magazines is needed to help establish a estimated value.
Surely a IP or Rock Ola Mag would be worth more than a IS or U Marked one.
Later Buddy :clap:
Hi Charlie, Great to see you I'm glad I finally made it back. Yes, your correct the mark makes a huge difference. I remember selling 2 T I marked mags on the Bay for almost 500 each. I can assure you about 80 of the 160 wrapped magazines are really sought after but not for me anymore. I had some really rare ones now I just grad a few and go shoot when I can.Quote:

You will never get the best price for a group (take the $$ scope off the rifle) as you would individually. The down side is there is a lot more time involved selling, packaging, mailing, etc. If you want to just sell as a group, put a price and go GB or CMP or eBay. Take what is fair.

I went ahead and sold the set for 575.00 to this guy I've done business with a few times and I did end up giving him my Friend Discount. I do have 2 more sets I'm going to list. I just need to keep away the Suppliers from the new guy just starting out or your regular collector.These business guys don't let the new guy ever bid they make it impossible for them. Believe this or not but I get more complaints or just plain rude ness from the Business Owners just because I don't put a Buy it Now. The cry terribly.
The Ethiopian carbines bring in a lot more new guys. At the same time these parts and accessories become more scarce every day. I suspect that there is a supply of stuff along with the carbines. Get whatever the market will bear, you are doing those folks a favor by selling genuine and correct parts.
