Need a quick fair market value for a Chassepot

[Aragorn243]

This is what I know. The stock looks decent with the exception of a crack in the wrist which was repaired with small metal oval plates on each side. Looks like an arsenal repair but I can't find an example of it anywhere. Rosewood plug is also missing, looks like the outline of the cartouche is still present.

It is missing the rear sight but the spring is in place. It is missing the cleaning rod. I cannot see any markings on the receiver so it is most likely worn. I'm going off photos. Seller says the bore is good. Barrel and bolt look like they have some blueing, receiver is in the white.

His asking price seems very fair at $200 but perhaps the missing sight and cleaning rod are impossible to find.
