What's it worth?

An old co-worker of mine came by work 2 days agco needing money. Has a Moss. mod 500 Youth .410 pump for sale in 90% condition.
Would it be worth the $200.00 he is asking for it?

Doubt it, full size 12g 500s can be had for 250-320ish. A maverick 88 made by moss are even cheaper tho not as nice im told.

Well, he stopped by before I could get back to this post & see what the comments were.
I bought it anyway.
I was wrong on the 90% condition. It has one, and only one small nick on the butstock .382" in leingth & .10" ish wide. Thats it. Otherwise in perfect shape.
He told me it was a youth model, it is not. It does have the 24" ful choke barell with 2 beads ( small gold bead 1/2 way up the bbl, and a white front bead)
but the leingth of pull is full size. WITH A RECOIL PAD !!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!
I would like to remove the pad & have a plastic plate installed if any are avalable.
Well, she has a new home anyway.

I seem to be, un intentionally, growing a shotgun colection. :-)
