I have a Browning BPS Upland Special 20 ga.with choke tubes and wrench. This gun is a 1996 model in excellent condition, never been shot and still in the original box with all papers included. . One tiny scrath in the pump grip. Walnut stock and grip with etching on the metal. I have been offered $350.00 for it. Is that a fair price or do you think I could get more selling it here on auction?

    Welcome to our forums here on gunbroker.

    What would be wrong with putting up on the auction side, with no reserve, starting at a penny, and telling your offer maker to bid on it? If his 350 is the high bid, then it will be his.

    Thats about the going price as far as I can tell, as far as moving it. If your just trying to move it. If you wanna sit on it till maybe the gun market changes up you should be able to get more for it. They seem to be sitting around $400 used, and I've seen them for as high as $650 at a local pawn shop, but thats a sucker price. You will be giving someone a fair deal at $350.

    Here is what they are going for on GB:

    Looks like you could easily get the same for yours, as you stated your shotgun also has the engraved/embellished receiver flats. The above gun was 'used' as well, and I'm sure it had a mark or two on it... and keep in mind, it went for the BUY IT NOW price. Probably the bid would have went even higher. Go price a new BPS 20ga Upland Special at a store, and you'll see your gun is worth much more than what your friend offered you.
