Gunsmithing Value of a 40X old school trigger assembly

[MtGoat]

I have an old school 40X trigger that I got for the tall safety to put on a M40 clone. Found the correct safety catch elsewhere so I have the complete trigger assembly left over. Figured that I would use it someday but haven't in several years so thought that I would put it up for sale. That is the rub....what is a fair price for the buyer and the seller. Based upon the cost of a Jewell trigger I am thinking $150 shipped in the CONUS....is that too high. This does have the trigger adjustment in the face of the trigger shoe.

BTW I am not accepting offers to buy at this time but will post in the for sale forum if the value is such that I figure it is worth selling vs throwing it back in my parts box for a "just in case" part.

Thanks
Pat

sometimes.........vintage do not always relate to pricey......

It is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If you think it's worth $150, throw it out there and see what happens...might find someone who thinks it's worth that much.

Mybe I should have couched it a bit different....

What does a 40X trigger assembly typically run on the secondary market (ie used but in great shape)?

I see the standard 700 trigger running from $40 to $100 (the lower end ones seem to be missing parts) and the Jewell triggers going for over $200 I figured halfway in between...right or wrong...semms a bit high/

Thank you.

That was what I was looking for. Pretty much sets the price
