$350 for a Chinese sks sounds about right. Some of the other's commend a bit more(Yugos are over $500 now).
Like others have mentioned, watch the sold prices on gunbroker, not the price they want. It's like the classifieds anywhere, the posted price is usually higher than what they'll settle for. Easy to come down in price, harder to go up.
A year ago I would have said $350. With AR15 prices so low all others that were hot because ARs were high priced take a big hit. $250-$300.
forgot to add the chinese commercial ones the numbers all matched I think.
We need more pics, everything included and close ups of the gun.
You can obviously as more for the gear but its honestly an underappreciated gun still. You can not replace it with something better for the price you are better off keeping in it my opinion.
is it just the sks thats it?
I for example have wood, fiberglass, old school precursor to ATI folder, multiple slings, DC engineering mags, chest rig etc post up the whole deal and make sure you are looking at the same exact thing when you are pricing it on gunsamerica, armslist, gunbroker etc. Its all in the details.

I believe I tried selling my norinco, shorter sportier paratrooper length, for $300 a couple years ago and couldn't get anybody to buy...
that was when ARs were still $600+

Pretty bad when you ask a question, get an honest answer, and bitch at the guy because it's not the answer you want.
$350 is about all you're gonna get for a Norinco. That's just the way it is.

I agree, 300 to 350, it will more fast. If you have no success simply post it to another site. I prefer Gunbroker, but that`s me.
Yeah very strange. Maybe I came off the wrong way but I don’t like to sugar coat anything. When reading someones response in text it’s easy to take things the wrong way I suppose, you don’t get any visual communication or eye contact. The “Stick it” comment by the OP was pretty rude though. I’m not sure why I continued to help him out. I be more careful on who’s post I respond to from now on. I’m a pretty avid SKS collector and figured I would help him out.
