what's my XD's worth? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I'm thinking about selling my XD-40 Service model in a local FTF deal and would like to know how much to ask for, I'm in California by the way. I like the gun alot but am having a hard time adjusting to striker pin based pistol (not very comfortable with leaving 1 in the chamber) so I'm going back to hammer.

Anyways, it's late last year's production with the factory test shell dated Nov/2006. It's in like new condition with no scatches, Melonite finish, 4 factory mags, 1 EFK 9mm conversion barrel and of course the XD gear, box and all paperwork.

The gun's had 600 rnds of .40 and 200 rnds of 9mm ammo run through it, how much can I get for this package?

If you're willing to wait for a buyer that wants all the extras you could get 450 or so. Just a guess.

Gun only, 65% to 70% of the going NIB prices.

$450? But I have a 9mm EFK conversion barrel + 4 mags, does it really depreciate that much?

Depends on how much it was when you bought it, I guess.

Everything in the package depreciates, not just the gun.

I'm the original owner, bought the gun off Bud's Gun Shop for $470 + $30 shipping + $45 FFL transfer. 2x factory mags at $25 each and the conversion barrel for $120 for a grand total of $715 just 3 month ago, with DROS out the door for $740.

Local gun shops carry the XD-40 new priced at $499 + 8.75% sales tax.

There are places to pick up service models for as low as $430. You can't expect to get back near what your out the door total price was. Retail minus 25-35% even in like new condition.

From what I've seen, most people don't see the non-factory barrel as a bonus. Most people want to pimp there own weapon from factory. So too many adjustments can be seen as a negative thing.

If you have the factory barrel, you may be better off selling the barrel separately from the gun.

ahh ic, I think i'll ask for $550 and see if there are any takers, would this be a reasonable price to ask for?

I think at that price you'd be holding on to that XD for quite some time. Like I said a service model 9 or .40 can be had for as low as $430, add a few mags, and still have plenty of $$$$ for ammo. As previously stated, the aftermarket barrel won't always be seen as a plus. No one wants to buy someone elses hot rod.
