Today, I picked up a like new in the gray plastic box a P 89 with 2 mags and a loder at a local show today. Paid 200. Not sure if it is a keeper. I think it is ugly but then I never met a gun I did not like. Was the price fair?

I sure think you stole it at that price even if its used.
The P89/p90 series are tough as nails and nearly
indestructible. I would for SURE keep it ugly to your
eyes or not.

Good deal, they're around $225 in my area, maybe $250 in stainless. You did good.

Yep, that's an absolute great price for one like new. I don't care what part of the world you live in.

You could probably turn around and sell it at the next gun show for $300 in the blink of an eye.

After shooting this "ugly" thing I have decided to keep it. It is not as pretty as a flat top 357 or 44 but it will do.

No Charlies, don't do it!

You can't keep that gosh awful ugly gun... it will cause the paint to peel on your house! Send it to me, I'll give you $225 for it.

the looks will grow on you over time.....

I would have instantly bought it at that price/condition.

Most used gun prices I've seen at shows are not that great.

I picked this one up after a dealer offered the guy 175 for it...he became angry and mentioned something about highway robbery. Saw him in the parking lot as he was leaving...now it is mine.
