686-5 and 640 no dash .38 value/price check.

[MP1518]

1) A four inch 686-5 mim BUT PRE LOCK. original grips, box,papers and an honest 98+% condition.

2). Two inch 640 no dash .38 special. in original box,papers etc.

Also 98%.

Looking for opinions of current market value.

The seller does not NEED to sell, simply is offering for me buy them since I showed interest in the guns.

Tomorrow I have to make an offer.

Than You.

I know this is not what you are asking but I'd make him give me his price and go from there.

Ok. I will tomorrow.

I got this 640 around Thanksgiving for $375, box and such. It's stainless so I have trouble with "% condition." I figure it's worth that. Don't know about L frames, haven't owned one in about 10 years. Joe

If it came down to a choice between the two, I'd take the 640 no-dash. But then that's been my EDC for over ten years, and I love those little guns. Both would probably fetch a good resale price in today's insane market, but from what I'm seeing the concealable pieces are very hot right now.

I bought a very clean 686-5 with 4" barrel without box and papers for $600 within the last year.
A new 686-6 with lock is going to be $700+. I would prefer the Dash 5 myself. After the first trip to the range both will be valued similarly as used guns.

The 640 is also very desirable.
It will be worth atleast $400 in the condition you describe. It might even go $450.

Considering the current price jumps and panic buying, they very well could sell higher on the market than what I listed.

I paid $500.00 for a 686 no dash without box last spring and never looked back. the 640 is around $400.00 here in Ohio

Yes, I would start with an initial offer of $400 for the 640 and $500 for the 686.
