Mini-Rukus-- What is it worth

[Eyebedam]

I acquired a NIB Benchmade 615 Mini Rukus in a trade. I'm thinking a selling it to fund another purchase & I guess since there's None to be found for sale I'm having a hard time figuring out what it is worth. I've checked evil bay & there's a couple on there but the price varies greatly. I generally try to price things by judging others that are selling the same item, but with this particular blade there's none to go buy.

I did a search on here & the last 1 sold for around 200.00 if I remember correctly.

Thanks

Well based on the searching I had done yesterday (I had temporarily lost my mini-Rukus) it appears that if you can find it the knife seems to be worth between 180 - 250 dollars (as you said a pretty wide price range). Personally, since the model seems to be unavailable if I had one NIB I think I'd just tuck it away in a safe somewhere and sit on it for a while. It's a great knife.

I have to mention, that if you are trying to SELL your knife here as only a "Registered User", that you will receive an infraction for "Selling without a paid membership", such as "Gold" or higher.

...Just sayin'...

No Im not. Ive searched the history here on the knives like this that sold in the past & all but 1 have had the price removed, Ebay has a few scattered all over the price realm. They are no longer in stock anywhere & this is about the only outlet I can think of to try to get a decent price point to start out at. I dont want to be a douchebag that prices crap way out of the ball park. Kinda figured if this is bladeforums & its all about blades maybe this would be where to find some info. Im not trying to sell it here just get some info.

What did you trade for it? How much was that knife worth? That's what the Mini Ruckus is worth.

If your Rukus is partly serrated, you would be lucky to get $200 for it.

Thanks that was the reason I posted pics. There were so many blade color/ type combos & the price varied accordingly. Would somewhere around 175.00-180.00 be appropriate for this particular style & or if I went to tge bay with it would you use tge buy it now option or just start it as a no reserve auction?

You do realize that the revenues gained from sales here play a large role in keeping this site up and running?
