Used box blinds

Have an opportunity to buy some used redneck blinds. They are a couple years old and in good shape. Don’t know what I should offer per blind. Anyone have an idea of what you would pay?

If good working condition I would think 50% of new cost up to maybe 2/3 new price? Maybe even 3/4 as we all know they will be more expensive next summer. I've always found 50% of new price seems like a solid starting point on most used items. Lower on TVs and electronics. Most likely higher on vehicles. Used guns sometimes are higher than new cost. Most items 50% seems like a good place to begin negotiations.

Rules of dickering....

1. Always make them give you a price. This is extremely important when dealing with friends and family.

2. Cheaper to buy in bulk.

3. Be willing to make the deal complete upon making the deal. As in, have cash on hand and trailer lined up along with help.

4. What is it worth to you. That is what really matters.

Yep. I hate when someone says "make me an offer" if they're the one that wanted to initially sell it. In that case I usually tell them "I can't buy it and sell it"

And if they are friend or family you don't want any bad blood. You might think a 75% offer is fair and they might think you are trying to rob them. Not a good place to be.

If it is friend or family, I'd try and throw in some labor for trade. I'm guessing an upgrade is happening.

Awaiting the answers to all of this thread. I'm definitely interested especially if you will deal if multiple are bought.
So pics?
Price?
location?
able to just come up and load or tear them down and remove?

Haven’t finished the deal yet. But working on it. They are in the field so I would have to get them out. Watched some videos. Will take some work but can be done with a tractor and a trailer.
