Is this a fair price on this gun?

Even with the box,tools and papers that seems high imho.

Way to high in my opinion also. Especially with no box, papers and etc. I'm thinking in the 600-700 range. Even that may be a little high! I'm sure someone will be along to correct me if I'm wrong.

I think madmikeb is correct on the value. If you want a collectable, get a NIB example and keep it that way. If you want a nice shooter, this would be a good gun if the money were less.
I agree with the two posts above. I would not pay more then $700 for a 29-2 without the box and papers.
There are lots of these to be had out there, especially with that barrel length.

Without all the goodies it's over priced and would be a great shooter for $600 to$700 in my opinion depending on where you live and demand in your area. The 6 inch is actually slightly rarer in the 29-2 but because of Dirty Harry every one wants a 6.5 inch.

It is high. A really nice and 100% original ( no box) N Series 6.5 inch 29-2 can bring an EASY 700.00 to the seller. Thats a STARTING point.But not a 1000.00. PS. An S Series, even later ones DO bring more.

OP
Thanks guys just wondering my local gun shop has one in about 95% condition with the box but no tools or papers for $1150 which I thought was way to high but though I might be missing something
Its subjective. Closed AGB auctions of the guns that SOLD with several bids is VERY good guide to realistic AUCTION pricing.
I have been reading many threads here about value of different guns and started some threads on the subject myself.
Its how much do You want the gun.
I have been looking for nice four inch 686-4 that I can just take out and shoot.
Found one in mint cond w/o box in my LGS for 650.00 OTD.
I think I did VERY well.
Someone I know told me that they bought the same gun for 400.00 from someone who needed rent money.
Does that mean I overpaid? NO.
I dont see many clean and tight 6.5 inchers 29-2's for sale.
Find one You like and enjoy it.
I like mine a lot.
