need help with pricing front fenders

hey folks i have a guy comin over tomorrow to buy the outter grille for a later waggie and front j-truck fenders. what is a good asking price? the guy saw 4 of my fsj's and stopped over i guess because his wife got into a wreck with there 85 j10 and he was lookin for a grille and fenders. my fenders are cherry with no rust and came off a j4000, im taking the emblems off. oh and he owns a realestate company and drove up in a newer bmw suv. need help guys what should i charge him?

I'd be asking $150/ea if they are rust free and "cherry".

Values vary with individuals and location. If'n were me selling I'd unrealistically hope for a hundred each if "perfect" or $150 for the pair.

$150 for the pair sounds good to me if they are REALLY nice. I'd be hard pressed to pay more unless they where near NOS condition.

To put things in perspective:

BJ's want $180 ea (plus shipping)
Team Wagoneer wants $225 ea (Plus shipping).
You're offering $75 ea and no shipping.

Yup. BJ's (and others) fenders are also brand new with not even a tiny ding, and don't need prep work for primer and paint. Also don't have extra holes in them that someone with a J10 doesn't need.

They are also much poorer quality then stock. And not many people are actually willing to pay those prices. I just bought two rust free after market fenders for $50.

Wide-Track fenders are still pretty easy to find. It's even possible to find very clean ones here in the rust belt.
