I've got a handful but don't have a clue what they are worth. Been planning to get some jewelry made out of them more a few years now.
It ain't the size of the gun but the placement of the bullet.

Looking on ebay they are worth anywhere between 15 and 40 bucks.

I have sold some very large sets for as much as $85 (These were some HUGE teeth from 370 class bulls) and smaller sets for as little as $25. They all had good color. I have seen some sell for as little as $15 however.

Figure by selling to you a person saves $$ with the listing fees and the % that E-bay takes from the total sale. So selling here is easier and better for some people.

How many are you looking for?

Are you looking for bull only teeth?

Are you looking to make jewelry?
