I know this is quite a subjective question, as there are many variables. However, I have never sold anything at a gun show, and want to see realistically what I should expect. I have a completely new Carbon-15 upper(like the linked one below minus the front sight), that I want to sell at an upcoming large gun show(Crossroads), and want to see where I should start my asking price, ballpark. I upgraded the upper with a metal one, so I figure on selling the carbon upper. thanks in advance!
Carbon 15 upper Edit : I am not including the BCG/CH. |
| Everything is simmering down right now so you might not get as much. I would make a sign thats asking 1000. People will talk you down, but its really up to what you value it at. Personally, I wouldn't pay 1000 for it but I have sold a lot of stuff for more than I would personally pay. |

Definitely start high. You would be surprised what some people will pay. Make sure you know what you bottom line is. 1000 might scare some people away, so maybe start with 950, and then work from there. Also, look on gunbroker.com and see what upper/complete uppers are going for. Like others said check out all the prices at the gun show and adjust from there. |
