>/k/ gave me shit for overpaying ($800) for "just a converted

You still overpaid at the time, chump.

i could spot that bakelite 300 yards away at dusk on a foggy evening through enough foliage to feed a starving elephant.

It's appreciated simply because of circumstances no-one should have expected, not because of its intrinsic value.

You still overpayed, and anyone buying it from you will have overpayed.

Negative, $850~ was the going rate at the time.

>>32644427
Then why start the thread with a lie?

I guess I worded it oddly. I got shit for buying an arsenal because "it's just a converted saiga".

Whats the story with the current ak market? Are they more expensive now?

>>32644464
Good AK are 800 to 1200 now.

>>32644464
Markedly. Saiga used to be 400, WASR used to be 500.

>>32644464
It's worth about double what I paid, give or take.

>>32644464
I just got a draco for 600. Did i overpay /k/. Prices on gunbroker are all over the place.

>>32644475
Lol no it isn't.

>>32644487
By about a hundo, but they're probably worth more than when I was shopping for one.

>>32644474
I bought my unconverted Saiga in 2010 for $320

>>32644425
Overpaying implies that the normal price is lower.

>>32644511
Well it had a railed gas tube with a magpil handguard and bladetec and enhanced safety plus 3 mags so i thought it was a good deal. Ohwell.

>>32644487
Kinda. I got mine sometimes last year for a little over 500. 5-600 is kinda standard, depends on where you get one

>>32644507
What's it worth then? Genuinely curious, I see a lot of people asking $1500.

>>32644524
With all that that's fair, then.

>>32644400
Pretty sure that according to /k/ the gun I like the most in my collection is the worst one.

Don't take this board too seriously.

>>32644533
Neat. I was hoping that they were worth way more. Bought it on a whim having some vauge awareness of the ak values goin up and its my first ak.

>>32644532
A lot of people will ask around 1500$, they generally sell in the 1200$ range without accessories.
You still got a good deal, and it will probably continue rising in price.

>that hair

>>32644400
That pic makes my pee pee hard Mr. OP

>>32644400
Was it fully converted or just the rear ?

It's an arsenal SGL-31 so fully converted.

>people giving me immense amounts of shit 3+ years ago for buying a vepr1v rpk because 556 and not 545/762
>now they hypin hot air rumors that fall through and cryin because coulda-woulda-shoulda
I sortof know the feel, just in a different way.
>>32644573
2 seconds in photoshop to fix that

>>32644633
If you paid 800$ for a slg31 you did very well and you know it.
