Title: Going rate for a Penn 113mtl ?
Post by: lmg on January 03, 2013, 04:03:03 AM
I was wondering what a decent price to pay would be for a all metal penn 113 ? I have researched and have found that they are not in production any longer as well as they are "beefed" up versions of a 4/0. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I bought one on e bay about 6 months ago & paid $160.00 for it. All of a sudden the price has jumped over $100 more. Its all in how much you have to have it. I wouldn't pay what they are asking now, I would just keep searching for the right deal or do without it. If you watch on e bay they aren't selling at the price they are asking & just keep relisting it in hopes they can get a sucker to bite. By the way the one I bought for $160 was brand new with original wrapping, & box w/all acc.   Rudy

If the 113MTL are selling for $250 now, maybe I should sell mine.  Ebay, you say?

Thank you Rowdy.
Makule, the 9500ss are also $200+ from what I have seen, I don't know what is going on with the market.

They are not selling for $250, they are TRYING to sell them for $250 or more.

They have been trying to sell that one for 3 months. Every time the listing expires they relist it for the same price & same 30 day listing.

     Rowdy is 100% correct! They are being listed for between $250 and $400 (as Jigger pointed out) but I haven't seen a taker, they just keep relisting.  I would say priced to sell would be 180-200 bucks... someone will take it.
