Please help. I am having a difficult time finding the approximate value of my Marlin 336. I know it was made in 69 and is in 95% to 100% condition.
It's worth more than it was a couple years ago. In a couple years, it will be worth more than it is today.
"Made in '69" will be significant to Marlin Owners, and few others. Guessing, MO now has about 54,000 members, half of those already have a .35 or two. Some would buy another, and some not. Judging from the number of hunters in just a couple states, there are a couple million other buyers that might consider "Made in '69" to be old, and little more. Looking at used M336's, many are/were safe queens with as few as one or two shots a year since the day they were made.
So, with pictures and a post you might get that $500 price, or even a bit more. At the LGS, you might be somewhere between $250 and $350 more often than not.
