Anyone know the value of a vintage Marlin Model 60?

[WheatNuts]

As the title says, I have good condition Marlin Model 60 that was manufactured in 1978, that I would like to sell, and was wondering what it's worth. Digging on the internet, I can only find prices of newer, used ones, and the average price seems to be around $150 to $250. Does a "vintage" Model 60 command a higher price, or is the age not really relevant with these rifles?

On this forum? No, a vintage Marlin holds no premium over a newer model. Your $150-$250 is an accurate evaluation. An 18rd, LRBHO is going to be worth a bit more, but not much.

Some might be quick to jump on a super clean example, but it probably won't go over $200 .
In other words, the nice ones sell while the beaters sit ( unless they're cheap)

There's over 11 million of them so far, so it's not rare.

1978 is not particularly 'vintage'.

If It has something different about it, a unique design or feature, or otherwise no longer made then it might have some collectability but I don't think there was anything like this with them.

If it was 50 years old then C&R licensees in Washington would pay more for it.

Just because something is "old" doesn't mean it's valuable….. if it WERE true, more than half the codgers around here would be kidnapped and held for big ransom money!
