Was trolling through the EE, as I am known to do, and stumbled across several different WTBs for various colored PMAGS. Does the small pile of OD green ones, with windows that I have, have more value than a standard black pmag? I understand that they are no longer producing that particular color? I have eight without wrappers, that are unused/unfired and are indistinguishable from new aside from having my mark on the floor plate.

Trying my best not to make this an EE post, just trying to gauge whether it is worth my effort to list them.

So....   this is an EE post?   Just post them for what you want to make it worth your gumption.  Heck, charge a stupid-high prices, and see what happens.  It doesn't cost anything.  

FWIW, these are the mags I run.   Well... as my 3rd choice, normally I run Lancers, then ETS, but when I run out of those, I run my OD Green Windowed PMags.    They're good mags, never had a problem.

I guess I was trying to make it  much more of a "what are they worth" posting than an outright sale ad. Figured if I could get confirmation that they are more valuable to others than what I can replace them with regular black Pmags for, it'd be worth the effort.

I'm not exactly hip to "collecting" Magpul stuff for the sake of having "all the available colors".

If they aren't considered "rare" or "hard to get/find" enough to net a reasonable return, they'll probably just end up cycled through my rotation.

PMag straight 20's are sought after, and you will get something on the order of 2-3 new ones in value for each one you sell.  OD greens are worth even more.   OD green is the most popular non-black color, and some folks will pay a premium for them.  For 30's, some people are going to want the color.  Put them up for $40+ a pop, and see what happens.

$20 would be fair. Just based off Current market value of black windowed mags plus a few bucks for color.

They're worth a few bucks more. In another few years they'll be worth a few bucks more than that. I'd hold on to them.

Who'd have ever thought you could get an OD green purse or purple Chinese flannel from Magpul but couldn't get an OD green Pmag.

Discontinued item.

Worth whatever a guy will pay for them. Do an EE search on past ads, price accordingly.

Imagine doing an ODG build, only for the color coordinated mags you counted on using in it to be discontinued!

What would you be willing to pay for some?

Price accordingly, on the higher end.

I personally love them and am glad I stocked up when I did.

Why Magpul discontinued any color is dumb this is the reason to own Polymer mags for a rainbow of colors even Aluminum mag manufacturers are now producing their mags in different colors and for Magpul to pull the other color mags off the shelf was dumb but hey what ever they sell od stock sets right?

It has to do with polymer chemistry used.  The color dies would weakened the plastic.  The black P-Mags were the strongest because of this.  Or so they say.

Correct. They do have the FDE Windowed PMags though.
