    Need help pricing a Saginaw S' G' to sell

    I have a Saginaw S' G' I need to sell, but I'm not sure how to price it.

    Receiver is Saginaw S' G'
    Barrel is Underwood 43

    The carbine appears to have all WWII features:
    Flat bolt
    Push button safety
    Mag release that is NOT "M" marked
    Two position flip sight
    No bayonet lug
    IO marked high wood stock - Appears refinished (not by me)

    The bad news:
    Rear sight base is original. Rear sight aperature replaced with repro after original aperature was lost (by me).

    There is no finish remaining on the barrel *at all." There is some finish remaining on the receiver, but I'd describe it as "weak" or "thin." (I'm not good at NRA % estimates).

    I plan to take some pics to include when I put it up for sale, but I haven't done so yet.

    I know this isn't a lot to work with, but any guesses on what I should ask? I know the Saginaw S' G' manufacturer and WWII config are good, but that's offset by the poor condition of the finish and missing aperature.

    I'm just not sure how to price this and could use some guidance.

    (I'm in Michigan, btw)

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Pictures and the serial range are a must have, to help put a dollar value on it.
    Make a check list of all the markings on every part you can get to.

    In MI also
