RCBS 10/10 scale value

toad67

Awhile back a buddy of mine asked me to keep an eye out for a decent buy on a beam scale for him. Well I found an RCBS 10/10 at a local gun show. I bought it and now he decided that he doesn't want it and I already have one of my own. It is an older one with the lighter green paint, complete in great shape without the box. I would like to sell it here on GB however I can't find any used ones and new ones start at around $140 or so. It also seems that most want electronic scales. Thoughts on what I might ask for it? Thanks.

toad67,

The 10/10 scales have their followers believe me. Put it up for auction and they'll come out of the woodwork.

I just bought a used one in fine shape, complete with box and cover for $75.00 shipped but you might start a tad higher to get a feel for the market.

Best.

They have sold on NAXebay from $69 and up to $171[:0]
Most went around $75-80.

Does it seem priced fair for its condition? Thanks for your input.

Best.

Toad:
I just sold one NIB in a local listing for $75 to the first caller, so your price seems reasonable. I find most of the small beam scales get about $20 tops in good condition, but these go for quite a bit more.

Good luck

Interesting scenario.A friend asks you to find and buy an item for him, and then he decides he doesn't want it, leaving you holding the product. Hmmmmmm

I know, nothing like left holding the bag. Only upside is that I didn't pay to much for it.

I have used my 10/10 scale since the late 70's, and have no desire to use anything else, including digital!
