Well the times come, I have a mint condition Remington 870 Original green leaf camo 12 gauge that I would like to get rid of. I know we're not allowed gun sales on here but just wanted some input on what price I should put on it? It's never been hunted, I purchased it about 5 years ago off of gunbroker. Any input would be great, thanks guys !

Is it a SPST ?

It's a special purpose 2 3/4 and 3 inch shell. Has original Remington turkey choke and a claw camo sling

If you can wait until March stick it on Gunbroker there's no telling how high it will go. If it is as nice as say I would put it in the $600 - $800 range. But come March Madness the sky is the limit. I have seen several go over $1200. I think I remember one new in original box go for $1600 I don't remember if it was Bottomland or Greenleaf.

Well I know I paid more than the 600$ range for it. I see them on gunbroker a lot go for over 1000$. I was just wondering what a fair market is

Wow! Well, with everything going on with Remington, the sun may come up on the day where you can almost name your price. Especially for that gun. Unless I REALLY needed the money, I wouldn`t part with it. But that`s just me.

OH89hunter

Yeah I don't need the money but I have an 11-87 in the original green leaf and a bottomland 870 also. So just figured I'd sell the one that was in the best condition. There just so hit or miss for sale on gunbroker that it's hard to put a price on them

Well, if you do definitely decide to sell it, like another poster said, I`d wait for March Madness.

I own more Old School Remingtons than probably anyone. I have tracked every single one sold on Gunbroker for the last 8-9 plus years. That gun in March will go for $1500-$2000 easily, possibly more. I've seen Greenleaf guns go for over 3 grand. They are harder to come by as time goes on and one in great condition will fetch a premium

There you go, big guy! Wowza!! Man, if I had more seasons left in me than I most likely do, I'd buy that gun today!

I'd love to see some pictures of your collection mrlongbeard!!
