Fair price for Reloader 26 powder?

[Poor_choices]

What's a fair price for Reloader 26 right now? I have 7+ pounds left in a keg that I was going to sell to someone locally, and I want to be fair with the price.

I have an idea in my head, I just wanted to fact check myself.

$1500? that's probably what it going for on gun broker --- I guest though as it was far below that a few years ago

Funny you mention Gunbroker, I checked there trying to get a starting point and I didn't even see any listed. I figured I'd take whatever I saw it listed for on Gunbroker, and ask for 90% less. I could probably still cover my mortgage for a year! lol

My dilemma is often that I don't want to feel like I'm gouging, but I may want to sell something for the current seemingly high market price to pay for something that has also gone up exorbitantly, hoping to come out about even. If selling on the open market and I sell it for what I paid for it 5-10 years ago, what is to stop someone from buying it, doubling the price and reselling it.
How about current value of money vs value of money when I bought it?
Lots of discussion could be had on the subject.

I sold some awhile back for $50 a pound. Limited buyers in my area and I didn't want to mess around with it. Bought N570 with the proceeds which worked to my benefit.

Personally, I'd trade it for something you have use for. I think anywhere from 10-16lbs of another powder would be reasonable..

Last I sold a friend was for $ 57.00 lb. - same as I bought it for. Could it have brought more - absolutely, but I'll take a good friend over gunpowder any day.

Ask what you paid -1/2 pound.

If you recently purchased ask for that to make your money back.

If purchased before all the craziness, ask for that.

$60 a pound would be a decent price for both of you. It would probably be more than you paid and less than he could purchase it elsewhere.

does anyone know where you can buy RL 26? I looked for RL33 FOR over 2 years finally used a different powder

Last I paid at lgs was $80/lb. That was a couple of months ago before they announced that they were not making any for consumers.

The problem for me would be the "open 8#er". Without knowing how it was stored or used, it can be suspect. I got an 8# H1000 from a guy with 6# in it, and it is 80fps slower than every other H1000 bottle I have ever used. I have used probably 500# of H1000 over the last 15 years. 1# & 8#.

If it were seven sealed 1#, I would bet you could get $100/lb as soon as you posted it. But asking $80/lb would be reasonable and fair. I still bet people will jump on it for $700?

Well it depends on what you PAID and if you want to make money off of it. Are you going to buy another Powder? so think of replacement costs.
We gave away a few pounds of R-26 last year and also sold a few lbs. for $40. to some shooters that need it. It was before I found out prices went crazy.
