Grey Market Pricing?

I’m looking to change up my collection a bit, and that entails getting rid of my 15500. I know the market has softened significantly from the heydays of Covid, but dealers seem to be offering almost insultingly low prices (think high 20's to very low 30's). I know I could get more via private sale, but I'm now questioning whats a realistic expectation. For the record, mine is a 2020 black dial with box/papers/links etc. Would appreciate any insight around pricing/good dealers!

Expect (based on condition) to be offered between 28 and 32K. This isn’t low, it is the market - once you realize dealers are looking to make a 2-4K profit.

APs are slow in the market at the moment.

That’s not insultingly low. They are on Moda for a couple grand higher so makes sense

Appreciate the comments, that all makes sense. Guess that’s just where things are at now!

As other said - 15500s tanked awfully across the board. If you add a profit margin of around 15% for the dealer and a sale price of ~33-35k (and a falling market) and it's realistic

They also can’t pay you as much because now holding means losing value too
