Hi, I’ll be looking at purchasing my first Python in the coming days or weeks. I’ve been searching for a while and have settled on the 6” blued model. I’ve searched the web to see if I can find an accurate way to value a particular gun I’m looking at, and have not found much information. I normally turn it Gun Broker to get an idea, but it seems to be a tough market to get a good read on. Many auctions with 0 bids have starting prices of Buy it Now prices of around $3k and more, but those auctions appear to tend to sit and not move. Auctions with bids seem to be hovering in the $2k - $2.2k range with less than a day to go. One will end tonight that should help me a little bit.
Speaking in terms of the 6” blued models (not engraved, not crazy low serial numbered, not part of a commemorative set etc...) is there anything in particular I can look for to help me decide what a fair price is? Was the royal blue finish more deep and glossy during some years? Are certain years more desirable because of design changes, material changes etc?
Take care everyone,
