hi all...planning on trading in my mini-14 for a pistol, mini just hasn't lived up to my expectations.....anyway....chances are i won't get much for the accessories i put on it so i'd like to sell them off in a lot....heres what i got...Butler Creek Folding Stock, Stainless, and DOES fold.....excellent condition, only brought it to the range once with the folder on. (2) 40 round USA mags, in wrapper, each used once to test them. 10 Stripper clips and Guide.I don't expect much for the stripper clips but i was thinking $80 bucks for the stock and $30 for the Mags (which work good, even at a high rate of fire)so $110 for everthing....plus actual shipping. does that sould fair? I don't want to screw anyone but at the same time i don't think i should ask much less since none of the items show any use or wear.~kaddy

    That price sounds pretty good to me. I think you could go even a bit higher. To get a fair price, make sure to compare the prices for each individually and how they are seeling on GB. Add em all up and drop a few bucks from there. If you have original packaging don't drop your price too much.At $110, you'll sell it off alright although the USA mags don't have the best rep, IF the ones you have were made after 1994.I think a safe bet would be to set your opening bid at $110, no reserve and let the bidding go from there. Keep in mind, most people know a good deal if they see one, and if they think $110 is cheap, the bidding wars begin...GOOD LUCK!

    Sell the stuff on Ebay. Search for the items you have and see what they finally sell for. Also, sell them individually, you will get more money that way.I do this kind of thing all the time so I have experience. Don't just try and sell it, when the auction competition could get you a lot more. At least see what those items sell for in auction.Eric

    HELLO KADDY,I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THE USA MAGS EXCEPT THAT EVERYONE ELSE SEEMS TO THINK THEY ARE JUNK. I HAVE NOT TRIED THEM SO CAN'T SAY WHAT THEY ARE WORTH. AS FAR AS THE FOLDING STOCK, YOU'LL GET AT LEAST $80 FOR IT. ONE CLOSED LAST WEEK ON EBAY FOR JUST OVER $200???? GO FIGURE WHEN THERE WERE OTHERS OUT FOR BID AT THE SAME TIME FOR ABOUT $90. SOUNDED PRETTY FISHY TO ME. YOU SHOULD GET AROUND $100 FOR THE STOCK, AND THAT'S REALLY A FAIR PRICE. GD
