Camillus Collectors

[sasquatch]

I have a couple of the CCC and 4 of the Rimfire Classics all of these are in a foam filled velvet lined glass front case that hangs on the wall. The case has Camillus in gold on the glass in the top left hand corner. The knives and the case for 300 plus shipping. I can text or email pictures if you pm me contact info. The knives are unused with no boxes.

The knives are:

CCC C-1 single blade lockback .22 Hornet
CCC C-2 stockman .22 Hornet
Rimfire Classic 22 LR2 1993 Trapper
Rimfire Classic 22 LR3 1994 half congress
Rimfire Classic 22 LR4 1995 muskrat
Rimfire Classic 22 LR6 1997 whittler

Not interested in breaking up the lot at this time.

Am I high on the price? Is there no market for these? I don't know how to post pics from my phone. I can send someone pics if they will post them here for me.

Thanks

You're not too high on the two CCC series knives but you're towards the top of the market for those particular patterns.

The 22LR series knives go for significantly less than $50 each.

Part of the problem is selling them as a package. Lot of guys don't have that much to plunk down at one time and if they collect CCCs or 22LRs they may not collect the other. They may only need one or two to fit into their collection so they would rather pick and choose.

I hope I've made the situation clear without insulting you. I know I for one, hesitate to respond to a thread like this for fear of insulting the poster. Some folks don't want to hear negative comments.

I think others will support me when I say, the quickest and surest way to sell the knives is individually, either through a straight out small opening price auction on eBay with no reserve or price them individually on AAPK and sell on eBay what doesn't go here. Either way, you are going to need pictures. I'm going to PM my email address and will help you post pictures here if you want.

It is nearly always the case that the seller can get more for individual knives than he does when selling them as a set.
That just seems to be the the way it works.

You may encounter a buyer that has several knives in the set and only needs 2 or 3 to finish the set.

Thanks, for the help Jerry.

All for sale individually. 40.00 a piece plus shipping. More than likely the whittler will not be sold.

Thanks.
