Hi folks,
I've been trying to sell two Rem M700 XCRs (both 300 WSMs) since December - a "regular" one purchased in 2007 (less than 100 rds,including 50 rds for barrel break-in) and a "camo" RMEF edition purchased in Fall of 2008 (exactly 154 rds, including 50 rds for barrel break-in). The RMEF version had $250 extra work done on them - bolt lugs lapped, Rings Lapped, and trigger set to 2.5 lbs. Both guns are in excellent condition, were/are immaculately cared for, and both were only used for Load Testing (never used for hunting).
I am asking $900 for the "regular XCR (comes with Lee Dies+STD rings bases)(~76% of price of new gun), and 1150 for the XCR RMEF (comes with RCBS+Leupold STD rings~92% of prince of new gun without extra gunsmithing work). Are these prices Reasonable? Excessive? Too Generous? My lack of success in selling any one of these guns has me wondering about the reasonableness of my asking prices.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated? (BTW SHACK, thanks for introducing me to this great site - while its nice "communicating" with our US neighbors about guns/reloading, I look forward to communicating with fellow Canucks).
