All,
I have a few unique Ruger revolvers that I am considering selling, but need your input on pricing.
1st is a Blackhawk .327 Stainless. I researched this on gunbroker and found they are selling between $900 and $1100. Can this be correct? I bought this new and have not fired it.

2nd, also bought new and remains unfired is a Stainless Blackhawk .44 Special with 4 5/8" barrel. I have not been able to locate one like it that has been sold to determine it's value.

Last is a D prefix stainless GP100 with 6" barrel. This one has been fired, but not much.

All 3 have the original boxes papers etc. Any help on how to price these would be much appreciated.
 
The 327 Blackhawk was dropped from production. So, it's values have risen. If you got the prices from completed auctions, then I'd use those figures. Of course, a NIB example is usually more valuable than a LNIB, or one used & in excellent condition w/o box papers etc.
As for the 44 Spl stainless Blackhawk. I can't help there.
And there are folks who look for "D" guns, "S" guns, etc. I'll let a few others chime in with their thoughts.

Tell me please, is this gun D173-73189 or 91? If you don't want to disclose the s/n publicly, please feel free to send me a PM.

Not many of us (yet) seem to be collecting double action Rugers and most don't put an additional value on being a "D" gun. However, I already own D173-73190 (also 6" and stainless) so it might be worth a little more to a guy like me if I could make a consecutive set.

Prices seem to vary greatly from region to region. Mine is seldom fired, with the box and all the other goodies. I paid a private party $400.00 which is exactly what he was asking for it.
 
It sounds like the stainless Blackhawk 44 spl. may be the Flattop version that was offered by Talo dist. back in 2010. It was a limited run of 1000 revolvers. Value would be around $600 in my opinion. It should be the 5th picture down on the link.

I bet that link would work better if STURM was spelled properly.
