eh, as has been said, first basic law of economics is that a fair price is what one buyer will pay and one seller will accept. The down side is the second basic law of economics: once a buyer pays an exorbitant price for whatever reason, that often becomes the "current price" and it becomes the standard and hard to down pay. See cases, powder, bullets, etc.

While I don't understand is owning multiples of the same make & model of a firearm. If it is a handgun with different barrel lengths, THAT I can understand, but not rifles.

If those Winchesters are going for that price, what are classic Marlin Golden 39's going for?

In my opinion, they are the epitome of a .22 lever action.

I agree that the Marlin is a better gun than the Winchester but it won’t bring as much.
The prices that these guys are talking about must be Gunbroker prices because I’ve seen 94/22s locally for much cheaper, usually $1,000 to $1,200.
I had a spare 39A that I sold last year for $800 and that seems to be about the going price.
