Good condition 95% with original grips. No box or papers. What is a fair price. I have the opportunity to buy one, just a little on the fence. Seller is asking $700.

Within the past 3 months I purchased a 629 no dash 6 in for $700.00 and a 629 Mountain Lion 4 in for $699.00. I think the price is right. Offer a little less and see what happens.

Offer a little less and risk losing the revolver and being told to go pound sand.

I would take it. On the big gun auction website, it would sell quickly with a BIN of $900 and I would not be surprised to see it come close to $1100 if it went to full auction. I'm not sure why, but lately pretty much ALL N-frames have been appreciating in price like crazy.

Thanks for the info! Sounds like $700 is a fair price. My S&W handgun addiction is tough to control!

It gets worse.

You can say that again!

It's got so bad I stop by my LGS a couple times a week to check his used guns, hoping he has something interesting. I figure if I can get a pretty decent deal why not. The older Smiths seem to continue to increase in value. If times ever get tough they seem pretty easy to sale.

Ensure to check Cabela's Gun Library.

IMO a 629-1 at $700 is a very fair price if in high condition

On the other hand the 6" and 8" 629-1 and dash 2 are the least desirable of the pre lock 629's IMO .
