This model was shipped in an attractive aluminum case inside a plain 12" x 10" x 5" cardboard shipping box.
For some reason, S&W chose to paste the usual label (which shows the revolver's serial no., model no., description, etc.) on the cardboard shipping box rather than on the aluminum case. This .357 was discontinued about 2007 and is not often seen at shows.
My question is this: How do most collectors, when buying the Model 360 Kit Gun, handle this situation? Do they place a lot of value on the entire plain cardboard shipping box, or would they accept just a 3"x 6" section of cardboard containing the label?
Thanks for your help.
