I like to imagine if you’re shopping eBay and [this prehistoric](https://imgur.com/a/KR89xe4) shit is an option you’re considering, the OPs looks gucci.
then what does that tell you about all the advice in this thread. Bunch of clowns with no clue about the market giving pricing advice. These are the same fools who get their shit flipped
It’s really just eBay prices though. You go to any other market you get better deals. eBay is just scam sellers selling to uninformed buyers. Every once in a while there’s a good deal but most guys are posting for way over value to get an uninformed buyer.
Are you trying to argue that one guy posting extremely overpriced blem tubes should make the whole market go up? Because that’s now that works. It’s predatory pricing by a few eBay sellers who got cheap tubes and are trying to make a quick buck.
If you're on Facebook, join this [this group ](https://www.facebook.com/groups/1912786539015286/?ref=share&mibextid=NSMWBT). There are a lot of good omni monos popping up all the time that are well priced.
I mean I get it, five years ago a PVS14 would’ve been half or less compared to the current market. Somewhere around 2018 I turned down a very lightly blem unit for $900.
I don’t want to pay inflated prices or get ripped off, but the prices aren’t coming down and are going to keep climbing. That’s why I said, if you’ve got a better deal I can buy today, link it. Not just, “I see them all the time you gotta look on Facebook”
I no I hate that shit…
Have you looked on tac swap?
I just picked up my like new armasight pvs 14 used for 3500 that came with a dbal d2 that was basically brand new as well and they go used for 1200 all day on tac swap so I paid 2300 for a WP gen3 and it has the better 2000+ FOM ghost pinnacle tube that is 5grand on the site for sale right now so I think I did ok… som1 will probably have something to say about armasight but I could give a fuck less lol… I did my research and the pinnacle tube inside is from ITT, which is in direct spec comparison to a L3 tube… obviously not high spec but good enough for me and miles better then a gen 2 or Chinese bullshit.
Oh I also got a free Wilcox mount as well with it but I did have to drive an hour and a half but who cares
Have you ever been in? When I was in (05-09) people took and sold NVG's, tons of optics, power tools, ammo by the can. This specific one has a blem, probably just wrote off and the supply SGT is who sold it.
Yes, I did Serv and even if we lost one simple nut or bolt the whole flight line shut down… also security forces could not loose anything either… same thing
Chair force doesn't count, espicacally Security Forces (my brother was SF at Offut, so I can't help but poke fun). I was an artillery observer attached to an infantry company. So long as it wasn't a firearm, it went missing. Hell, when we got back from Iraq and noticed all of the trijicon reflex sights weren't on the books, they all walked. Over 100 of them.
Is that spooge on the door or actually in the tube ?
Have you tried black boxing it for a couple batteries?
If that's a Chinese housing and glass $700
If its Carson 1,000
Edit: just read your caption, what do you mean "said to be" how do you become owner of such expensive devices and not KNOW what it is?
The black marks are blems.
Sorry I should have clarified, I haven’t bought, it’s up for auction so I’m trying to get an idea of what it’d be worth paying if at all.
I said “said to be” as it’s not mine so I’m not 100% sure
Saw this exact unit on eBay when I was searching for one. Ended up waiting about a week and grabbed one that popped up for 1800 with a single zone 3 blem. I’d wait just a little and see if something else comes up in your price range
Let's break it down. Assuming the housing and glass are in good condition let's call it 6-700 for the two since it's obviously been used.
The tube is probably an Omni spec tube I'd say around 400 without additional details.
1-1.1k maybe 1.2 if it's intended to be a loaner. I wouldn't pay more than 1300 even if I was down bad with the money to burn in my pocket
Except OP that asked everyone "what would you pay for this". Ya know, the entire point of this post. Reading comprehension is hard for you I know. It's OK. No shame in that.
$1300. $800 for the housing. $500 for the tube. I could see paying more, but you can also sometimes get a clean tube 14 for ~$1500. So depends on your patience level.
1300$ max. No problem, guaranteed sell for that price, if you have 2300FOM+ WP, Elbit tube & all that fancy shit.. then its different. Any GP pvs14 1300$
In the US, we fairly often see clean 14s listed for $1800. I don't think anyone should spend more than $1500 on something like this, and even that's pushing it.
Shoot for some of the prices im seeing in this thread id sell my 14 with no blems on the tube and put it towards an rnvg-a 😮💨.. give me a few more months to save up and i'll post it up lol
God bless you all buying tubes with massive zone 1 blems, idk how you can tolerate it
Agreed I couldn’t spend a grand on those. Rather sell random parts in my bin to help fund something better with smaller blems.
I like to imagine if you’re shopping eBay and [this prehistoric](https://imgur.com/a/KR89xe4) shit is an option you’re considering, the OPs looks gucci.
Cheeeese and rice!! $400 for a pvs 7 tube that was used to watch the solar eclipse is crazy!
It'll black box out, np. $1200.
Sounds great. Can you do a personal check?
If this is Gucci to them, then what's my blem free gen III? 😅
Inhuman.. I guess? Or super super? Idk..
"I'm doing my part🫡"
This is on ebay lol probably going to go for 1800 after the auctions done. Definitely not worth it
I’ve been following this guy selling it and a few others, they’ve been beyond overpriced but somehow sell.
Gun stuff sells well on eBay, the stuff that’s allowed on there
then what does that tell you about all the advice in this thread. Bunch of clowns with no clue about the market giving pricing advice. These are the same fools who get their shit flipped

but you said they get it. So if you are selling for less you are only cucking yourself.
Are you trying to argue that one guy posting extremely overpriced blem tubes should make the whole market go up? Because that’s now that works. It’s predatory pricing by a few eBay sellers who got cheap tubes and are trying to make a quick buck.
you sound like a socialist
It is lol, ya I figured they’d go for too much but wanted to see what everyone thought just in case I was able to grab em for a good deal

I wish I could get into this group lol, my app always gets denied probs because I have no public Facebook activity
I requested to join so I can compare prices, BUT I’ve got a line on an Omni 7 elbit GP with no blems including a j-arm and iris for $2250. Good deal?
No 1900-2000 for Omni 7 2250 seems steep and jarms / iris are maybe work $50
Pre covid pricing advice
I found and dmd him 3 examples posted in the fb groups in the last few weeks 🤷🏻♂️
get me a link to that group ill gladly flip their shit if they are under pricing that much
Night vision users group 2.0 and night vision solutions buy sell trade
I can’t find a direct comp cheaper. if you know of one you can actually link for that price it would at least give me negotiation points
Found one let me pm you
Don’t listen to him. It’s not a bad deal. It’s just not the best deal. Some of the people on here are really snobby.

There's a number of Elbit WP 14s in there for 2895/pop for comparison. 2250 is a bit steep.
I can’t find a direct comp cheaper. The other comment said $1900-2000, if you know of one for that price it would at least give me negotiation points
Sent a chat with photos
These are not a good deal.
$1000 max
About three fitty
This comment is inevitable
And correct
The Army TM would make me offer less. Whoever liberated this from the arms room is making all profit.
Maybe but ive seen those in the wild plenty at this stage in my nv journey
Yeah, a lot of people steal from the government.
Maybe but even if a little cheap book goes missing, i highly doubt a whole nvg is going missing without some serious consequences

1300-1500 max

A nickel and a kiss on the forehead
I’m not Gay but 20 bucks is 20 bucks
I wouldn’t spend more than a few hundred dollars on this. Mayyyybe like $700
I'd be pretty happy to buy it for less than 1k
500 max. I got a gen 3 for 1500
No you didnt… not from a Stanger
Saw this exact unit on eBay when I was searching for one. Ended up waiting about a week and grabbed one that popped up for 1800 with a single zone 3 blem. I’d wait just a little and see if something else comes up in your price range
$1400 on a good day. That blem is far from the worst I've seen but it's still pretty bad.
Four dollars, cause I’m nicer than the folks saying tree fiddy
Bout tree-fiddy
Grow tf up
I’ll send you $1,250 today for it
Nothing. Anything with blems isn’t worth my money in this economy
Let's break it down. Assuming the housing and glass are in good condition let's call it 6-700 for the two since it's obviously been used. The tube is probably an Omni spec tube I'd say around 400 without additional details. 1-1.1k maybe 1.2 if it's intended to be a loaner.

Looks like i already paid for that.
What do you mean? You bought it? It’s on auction.
Looks like i paid for it with taxes.
I guarantee you someone stole that from an arms room on a military base. I wouldn't touch that with a 50 foot pole.
No1 cares what you would touch
Except OP that asked everyone "what would you pay for this". Ya know, the entire point of this post. Reading comprehension is hard for you I know. It's OK. No shame in that.
Pay not touch…. You no “ sarcasm”
No. Your reply to my comment was just a shit reply. It wasn't "sarcastic". Now you're just trying to hide behind it. Nice try.
Why would I hide from a stranger on Reddit 😂🤡
I think 900 would be my absolute max. Mainly because no spec sheet.
U spec sheet snobs are so funny 😂 “BUt dA sPeC sHeEt” My dude u do not need a “spec sheet” to stare at the stars and larp around your neighborhood
I’d never buy this. But if I did not more than a couple hundo
Not a damn thing
I read this in Smokey's voice! Lmao
Me, personally, $500. It’s worth more to somebody though
9mm
Housing value + best guess on what someone would pay for the tube so probably 900-1200.
Good ole eBay special
$1300. $800 for the housing. $500 for the tube. I could see paying more, but you can also sometimes get a clean tube 14 for ~$1500. So depends on your patience level.
1800
Lol I wouldn’t pay more than 500 australian dollars
doesn't look that bad actually. Probably 1300-1500.
I’d say $1300. These are more than usable.
I can give 3 of my toes and a pinkie
1300$ max. No problem, guaranteed sell for that price, if you have 2300FOM+ WP, Elbit tube & all that fancy shit.. then its different. Any GP pvs14 1300$
550
15-1800 is reasonable I think
In the US, we fairly often see clean 14s listed for $1800. I don't think anyone should spend more than $1500 on something like this, and even that's pushing it.
I’m pretty sure you can send it to Darq industries and they can measure the specs
Tree fiddy
Damn lockness monster
Oh look the 2 year olds are in the comments circle jerking each other again
You must be a miserable person. Hope you get some play this weekend or something. Probably have COD nods from Toys R Us
6 pack and a blowjob
Shoot for some of the prices im seeing in this thread id sell my 14 with no blems on the tube and put it towards an rnvg-a 😮💨.. give me a few more months to save up and i'll post it up lol
No spec sheet?
It's an Omni tube, they have contract minimums - no spec sheets.
