Horrocks Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Just offered £175 for my CZ Varmint .17HMR, 20" barrel. Very good nick, although some cosmetic and easily ironed out dinks on the woodwork up at the fore end, RFD conceded the condition was good and the S/H CZ's in this calibre aren't so prevalent at the moment. Since i'm hoping to part exhange this for or get a HW 60j in its stead, a rifle in a different league in price and finish I was aiming at the £200 mark, which would make the £598 the sportsman gun centre is selling its HW's at a little more attractive. So, is £200 an unrealistic price to sell into the trade? thanks, H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dempy Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 have you thought about selling it privately? I could know somebody interested in that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horrocks Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Aha Dempy, you may perhaps have stumbled across a hidden agenda, they seem to get a far better price and that probably the route i'll go down, it won't be today but i'll stick up some pictures perhaps tomorrow to see if there's any interest about, its only an 06 gun and they seem to get good price through the forum.

Lez325 Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Personally - I'd sell any guns / Rifles privately- you'll always get a much better price then selling back to trade - as trade need to make a profit based on what they pay you, so its always going to be a rubbish offer Les :look: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malkiserow Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Don't worry about the prices when you exchange in the trade. The salesman may well have targets so let him worry about the 2 figures of the 2 guns for buying and selling. ................. it is the difference that you have to pay that matters :look: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
