I guys, I've never bought a python before and was just wondering if this is a good deal. It's a local private sale and he's asking 1500. The python itself has been carried and I've attached his pictures.Thanks!

for 15 bills you better have it in the safe as of right now JMO

Looks like a very good deal to me

the python looks good and $1500 is not out of line these days. check the timing but I suspect it will be ok.

Go for it. If timing and lock up are good and you want a shooter Python then $1500 is a good buy.

Thanks for all the info! Just an update the seller has told me the gun has been refinished by colt before does that decrease the value at all?

1200.00 tops, it's just a shooter. refinished:bang_wall:

I'd say $1500 is a great price, the best time to buy things is when they are up for sale... A lot of people may disagree, but a $1500 Python that I can shoot now while I'm able, is worth more to me in the hand than searching for months, or years for a better deal. I'd love to say that standing at the range, pointing my finger like a world renowned revolver, making Python and ringing plate noises, while I wait to trip over a good deal is entertaining, but I'd rather be shooting... I don't like to overpay, and I prefer to haggle a bit, but I'm of a mind to buy it if I want it. YMMV

Run, don't walk, right on down to your friend's place and give him what he wants.
You cannot possibly get hurt on that thing.
If it isn't what you are after, you will move it on down the line as if it was greased lightning.
Good grief, bro! It's a 4", and it's blue!

 

[knightenforcer]

That's a good price. I wish I could find one like that in my area.

I'm with EagleEye on this deal...It's a refinish AND it's worn the SECOND time. (So, what did it look like the first time??)
For $1,500 or $1,600 you can get original finish in equal to or better condition. I pass.
And said with all respect to the opinions of others.
