Default Fair price for Model 13-3?

What is a fair price for an unfired, NIB model 13-3 with the original box, all paperwork, and all tools (still in original plastic bag)? This is a four inch barrel, and every thing is mint, from the box to the paperwork, to the gun itself. They're asking $600.

Not really up on these, just bought one last week - my first.

Here in the S.F. Bay Area I got my 4" 13-3 in LNIB condition for $400, but he was asking $450 originally.

$600 sounds a mite bit high.

Yeah, you are paying a lot for paper, box and tools. If you want to shoot it -- save your money. If it were a 3" I'd buy it, but 4" 13s are not all that rare.

WAY too much for a 4". I paid $500 for this nickel 3" LNIB with tools, and papers and this area is VERY high on Smith wheelies. The blue is 95+% I got for $375. Both in the last 6 months.

I got a pristine Model 13-3 with a 3.0 inch heavy barrel, no box, no docs or tools last year in trade for a LNIB Model 4006 and approx. $200.00 in cash. My opinion is that the seller's price is a bit high by at least $100.00.

Best of luck,

Dave
