There are so many fakes out there that I bet you can find a good one if you start looking. The trick is to convince the owner that you know that it is a fake and then start the negotiations from there: Rifle = $350-400, replica scope = $250, etc. I did see a fake sell for $1,500 at my local gun store about a year ago. When I went to look at it, the gun shop employment allowed me to examine at it but informed me it had been already sold. When I informed him it was a fake, he couldn't believe it. I think he was pretty happy that he made a good profit on it!
