I do not have that guide, but understand what you're observing. I have a slightly different opinion on this subject though. Condition is the most import charateristic to consider. In my opinion an 98% plus gun is unique and will bring a premium. What is a 98% to 99% original conditioned gun worth compared to a 97% or 96% gun? The actual condition I would think would be a huge factor in the value. If a someone describes an item as 99%, but in your eyes it is only a 97% gun, then you would have a difference in price from the price guide. Also, in this day and age of the internet with all its gun auctions, and gun papers and magazines and dealer lists, I think it would be hard to say that a gun has a different value in each part of the country. The value of thay byf is what someone will pay for it, whether it be in MT or FL. If you can sell your byf in FL for a certain amount, why sell it in MT for a less amount?
