Title: CZ 85
Post by: Xcerebus1 on October 25, 2021, 08:07:28 PM

I have a 1992 CZ85, unfired. I'm trying to get some sense of the value. It has absolutely no wear marks and looks like it just left the factory.

welcome,

value can depend on where you live.

and for some what else there is may add some value.  Like OEM box, propaganda, plastic bag, hang tags, tools/accessories...ect

If you are in the USA, you can check out the various gun auction/selling sites and go from there.  Note on many sites like that and on many boards like this, you will find a SEARCH feature.   You may want to use them if you find it.

But on some of the gun auction/selling sites, you may need to join to use the advance features.

There are gun reference books like the Blue Book of Gun values.  But note, a book can only reflect what was going on when it was published.  it cant reflect whats hot after the fact or maybe some local prices/values.

Then last thing to remember.  Google is your friend.

good luck

Selling for $700-$900 over on Gunbroker. The fees will lower the amount the seller ends up with

Watch the online auction and see what auctions are ending at. What people ask and what they end up selling for often are two different things.
