    Need some input from the AO community

    Ok so I have been pricing skydiving gear and its looking like its going to cost a lot of money. Reluctantly, I think I am going to have to sell my beloved Pneumag. Being as I value it a lot, I would like to hear what you all think I could expect to get out of its sale. There are no pics of the internals as I am in the middle of rearranging the pneumatics to make the trigger as light as possible. And the raw chimera will get a black anno job before the sale.

    the specs on the marker:
    red x valve
    black WL ule body
    chimera grip with aluminum pannel grips
    viper blade trigger
    dallara rail
    15 degree asa w/ bike grip
    palmers micro rock
    NDZ on/off
    msv-2
    mpa-3
    q-loader w/ 4 pods
    (tank and barrel not being sold)

      350 seems a tad low. at a bare minimum 400 but more likely closer to 500 as it has the harder to find Chimera frame, and RED xvalve, not to mention your getting the q-loader system included in the package. And your not taking into account the PNEU mod done to the marker. Very nice marker, sad to see someone part with a beloved friend =/

          It really depends, I would say somewhere from 400-450 though, mag resale seems to have taken a hit latetly. I just picked up an E-mag with Xmod and a 114/4500 tank for 330 shipped.

              e-mags seem to be droping down fast and hard, but mech mags are oddly still holding their value

              400-500 seems bout right

              youl probly get more $/better results if you parted it all out

                  Should be able to hit $450+ EASILY if everything is in decent condition and you parted it out.
                  Heck, just the main components will get you there:
                  Chimera w/ viperblade - without pneumatics and with stock grips $120 easy (assuming you didn't butcher it when doing the pneu-install)
                  Red X Valve - Should bring a nice premium over black, $200 easy (assuming ULT & LVL10)
                  Black Warp ULE $80-100
                  Dallara Rail $65-75 ($80 new, and they're a very nice AM/MM style rail)

                  Already over $450 and still have the pneumatic parts, ASA, grip, on/off, q-loader, LPR, and aluminum panels (assuming you still have the stock grips).

                  Also, one freak low-priced emag doesn't mean resale has taken a hit. If anything, I've noticed Mag resale has improved a bit as of late.
