I think it would be a good idea for your friend to check Ebay. I think the average is above $200, I've seen them go for $200 to $500 + and for a 221 not a 222 (freearm). If you were to post it here for her, I bet you could get her $350 or more easily. If you want to make an offer and the machine is in good shape, I'm thinking a bit more then $200 is in order, unless the machine is in terrible shape. Personally, I think it might be taking a bit of advantage of her unless he is simply interested in dumping it quickly without doing any research. Not to call you unethical, but you know how much they are worth, you need to think about how you would feel in her shoes. JMHO.
