What would be a fair price to ask for a Marlin 30AS. 3030? I'd say it is in good to very good but has a few cosmetic flaws?
 
It's fair to ask for as much as you'd like, and then settle for whatever is enough for you, if you can get it. Lever-action is a bit fashionable these days and absent current production and the uncertainty whether Ruger will make their Marlins seem ...authentic? ... enough for potential buyers, many sellers are seeking a big premium for that brand.

I'm happy with my 1894 made by Remington but I understand the appeal an old JM has for some people and that they won't settle for anything else.
 
I'd be surprised if the new ones coming from Ruger are under a grand..... if it's a nice old classic Marlin I think Looky's price would be a pretty quick sale!

Not sure what the C19 double brown thing is referring to except maybe that his estimate is on the low side.... beater 336's are being listed for around $550 these days.

C19 = covid chit.
Add two brown ones = + $200 to the $450-$550 amount.

Fair price? kamlooky's suggestion is probably correct ($450-550).

But currently, if you price it around $700-800 it will probably sell very quickly. And the buyer will probably be pretty happy with the deal.
 
Seen them sell for $850 in excellent shape,I can remember buying one new at crappy tire years ago $379.99 on sale ,came with a 4x bushnell scope mounted .times changed a bit since then lol.

There's lots of other stuff you could have got back then for $379.99 that you can't now.
