Is it just me…
.. Or do the people who are selling their AF rifles lately seem to be wanting more $ than they are worth.
Please bear in mind that my net expenditure for a used Talon SS was $60, so I might be a bit off.

With the exception of quality glass, I tend to agree with rob3dr; and YN. The
prices quoted for used AF rifles appear to be very close those shown on PA.com
and other web retailers. 😕
I’ve been keeping an eye out for a used Condor (hunting buddy wants one) but
am seeing fairly high prices – in a down market! Maybe we should pull an OA
talk down the rifle to deflate the cost/value! 🙄
Well it has been a while !
Or was this another chance to throw into our faces that you got an SS for a total expenditure of 60 bucks? 😆
I think folks tend to overprice due to accessories that they put on their guns. With few exceptions, those accessories are a loss. Goes for most other items…. you get a car, you upgrade the exhaust, add a modified throttle body, upgrade the stereo, etc… and when selling it, you get the attention of kids….but thats about it. Those add ons do not enhance the price, overall.
Same way with our guns. There are so many cool items for them, but as a whole, they add little to the selling value of the gun. Typically, one gets much more out of their kit if they part it out and sell the stock gun and accessories separately.
We’ve seen it time after time where a nice kit is offered for sale and doesnt sell… but the second the seller starts parting out, items disappear FAST.

I wouldn’t buy a used condor at, near, or above the cost of a new one. A tuned rifle is still used. A modified rifle is still used, makes it worth more to me, what about you? I don’t know. It’s a seller’s market, most sell for the most money they can get.
Wat is da blue book value for a condor shot 1000 rounds like new in the box?????????????
