    Custom anything is paying a large premium to get made, and as it's very unlikely to be spot on spec wise for the next owner you lose a LOT. This is why I have a few guns I hardly use but am unlikely to sell as they are still worth more to me than to anyone else.

    People distrust modified anything, they wonder if the mod was a failure and that's why the item is for sale-even if they would consider getting the same mod done!

    I used to buy and sell a lot of gun on trade embargo until the tax man and police decided I was a biz due to volume.
    Every so often a name brand factory gun comes up about half price-normally hardly used and with a buy now.
    Then bide your time and get 80% of new value.
    If it has a good scope then split and sell separate, this goes double if it's only a ok scope on a nice gun.

    Tactcool toys built on the cheep cam sometimes get an impulse buyer to pay very high $, gun city seems to live on this.

    Collectables are a whole different story, the net is making it very hard to know what something will sell for.
