WTK: Value of Colt lower

[MrWithasee]

I have a Colt Sporter Match HBar AR lower receiver that I was going to do a build with but have since abandoned that idea for an MBR. A fella at work has expressed interest in acquiring it but I have no idea what it is worth.
It has the A2 stock, an MH serial number that apparently puts it into the "pre-ban" category (like that matters) and a 0.250 front pin and hole. It has never been fired.

Anyone have an idea on its value?

I was going to say $400, but the preban Colt lowers are going and have gone for $550-$700 on gunbroker recently.

That seems like alot, but it being preban still is worth more in certain states that have their own AWB.

The words "Colt" and "Pre-Ban" are the keys to the good life according to some. You should check over at AR15.com for prices. Your buddy may not want to give you what it is worth (but then you may be feeling generous.)

I just looked quickly and here is a Colt for $750! (ain't selling so fast....)

I figured that the Colts were worth more than even Bushys or the other quality lowers but I had no idea that it would be that much more. I am surprised that "pre-ban" has any bearing on it even in the AWB states. Makes me wish I had picked up the matching complete upper to go with it when I had the chance.

I've got a feeler out on the AR15 board but haven't gotten any replys yet.
