Price check 1984 Win 32 win Special

[MThuntr]

A friend wants to sell her 1894 Winchester in 32 Win Spl. Serial number is a 1919 manufacture year. Of course, the pics I got aren't great but looks like bluing isn't doing great but rust free. Wood is scratched but nothing wild. All indicative of some use. Only major issue is someone engraved/inlayed dice into the forearm

So paging all the good 'ol boys. Anyone want to take a stab at a value?

Wow. Nice lever gun!

With the collector's value largely diminished, it comes down to the internals as well as overall condition of the metal & wood.

With those photos, I'd say $600-ish if the screws aren't buggered, lettering is crisp, the bore is bright and the insides are clean & rust free.

32 WS getting tougher to find, which is a shame. Great cartridge.

I wouldn’t take less than $1000 for it if it was mine.

32 win caliber is a plus. The dice are a definite minus.

I really think $750 is a fair value.

Probably closer to $1000 without the dice.

Six if he wants to sell. More to make a hobby of relisting it until a special buyer sees it

The dice are a killer on this gun for collectors.

$6-700 as long as the steel, bore, and screws are in good shape.

Are the dice ivory?

Are the dice ivory?

I don't think so.

Well they got $1000 for it. Less than 24hrs...guess we should have priced it higher
