Colt Cobra value
It's a 2nd generation Colt Cobra
Blueing is fading on the back strap, and it has some missing on the left side plate.
I've seen a few on GB but never saw their final price.
I was hoping to get around $600 for it. Any chance? or am I hoping for too much?
I'd keep it if I didn't need the money.

Can't hurt to try. You are not outrageously over priced. Those who love 'em, love 'em and they don't make them like that anymore.

FYI: Private seller at a recent show out here had a NIB Agent with exposed ejector rod, similar to your Cobra, for $700. Absolutely cherry. Not really interested, but I probably could have gotten him down $50 or $100.

A lot depends on the condition of the gun & your location.
A gun that goes for $400 here will sell for $500 - $600 on the west coast.

Realistic selling price IMO is more in the $450-$500 range in that condition if it times/indexes correctly. Pristine with the box would be more in the $700 neighborhood.
I've owned a few Cobra's and they are a fantastic small carry gun.

I won several Cobras and DS's. You are not too far off. If you ask $600, I would try to get you down to $525-550ish. Is the red insert factory? I have not seen one like that. Wish my Cobras had it.

The person that I bought it from claimed the red insert was from the factory. I too haven't seen another one like it, so I find myself questioning his claim.
I have it posted at a few ranges in my area priced at $600 OBO/price negotiable. I'll lower it if I don't get any hits.
