Steiner Military 4-16x50 Depressed Values

[SE31193]

I have an excellent condition Steiner Military 4-16x50mm Mil-Dot G2B that I've been trying to sell for some time. Upon joining this group, I see that their values aren't what I expected. I understand this is an older scope, but its build quality and durable is second to none. Are these only worth $1k?

Well, here was one listed in 2022 for $1100. and all indications it didn't sell. Draw your own conclusions.

Funny how some "top-tier scopes lose a little value, while other lose half their value.

Yeah, they're a good bang for your buck for people looking for a great used scope. Same with older Vortex Razors.

That’s one downside about anything tech or electronic. As people innovate and technology move on, relics [even the great ones] get lost in the past.

Its a 10 year+ design, outdated undesirable reticle. Cant remember but does it have zero stop? Its been discontinued for a long time now. if anything happens its a paperweight like the old premiers.

Probably one of the best optics Steiner ever made. I had one a long time ago and liked it. Built like a tank.

They sold for about $1-1.3k back then. With inflation and devaluing of old optics $1K is probably about fair if not a tad high.
