I saw one last Summer for $695. I tried to talk the Seller down and he would not budge. It eventually sold, but I don't know for how much.
Offer him $400 and if he takes it run like a scalded dog. I would think that a 66 new in box would fetch a healthy price-around $5-600 to the right person. I would not start there but ley the guy set his price and work down from there.
Odds are you won't find another NIB no-dash 66 again -- if it has all stainless sights, the original box, grips, tools, and the original trigger stop still intact.
Those truly NIB early 66s that remain in circulation tend to be in sophisticated collections where the owner is very aware of what they have.
I don't believe the 66 you mention can be placed in the same value category as a typical used, modified or equivalent gun that could have had many owners.
People whose only interest is to shoot guns tend to lump them into the same value category. Nothing wrong with that because that's the way they see them.
Much like new cars, the minute they are driven off the showroom floor (or shot) they can lose 30 to 40% of their new value -- something to keep in mind if the gun is intended for or needs to be a growing investment for the buyer...

This revolver has had two owners.The original owner said that he never fired it and the second said it hasn't been fired since he owned it.He told me he would sell it to me for $650.00.
Go in there and lay down 4 $100's, 3 20's, 3 10's 17 5's, 1 two, 11 one's, a gold dollar coin, a fifty cent piece, 35 quarters 10 dimes three nickles and 63 pennies. Tell him that's all the kids had in their banks-he'll sell it to you for that-works every time
