I have an 8" model in similar condition I picked up for $350 8 years ago.  It was from now dead coworker that needed money.  I offered $600 (not sure what they were going for back then but thought at the time that that was a reasonable price) but he was VERY insistent on $350, so I agreed with the condition that I would sell it back to him at $350 if he ever wanted it back.

Well it sold, so it must be realistic.

At some level.

But not to me.

Much higher than they sell for around here.

Stupid money.

$1500 tops around here and even that is too high in my opinion when you can pick up a Python for around the same money.

That's what I was thinking.  That was the only auction with bids that I could find for a stainless 8" model.

The longer 8'' revolvers usually don't tend to go for as much as the 4'' models. While I do have a longer Ruger SRH for hunting, 6'' is tops for everything else and 4'' is better for me. Some of the snubbie Colts like the Python can go for far more then the longer barreled one's.

And to think the King Cobra was the cheap Python.  

Gun buyers have gone completely off the deep end on Colt revolvers.  It is beyond insanity.  What's worse is this madness is creeping into the Smith and Wesson world.

That is crazy! I bought  a King Cobra Elite NIB off the EE two years ago for $850, and I thought I did good when I sold it for $1200. Man, I should have held on to it.
