About the best thing you can do is go to Gunbroker.com, join up and then login, go to advanced search, and check the "completed auctions." The asking prices are no real indication of value, but the stuff that sold is a good indication of real value if you are honest about your gun's condition VS the ones sold.
Before I go to a show I check the numbers to make sure my prices are in line and that I have a bit of maneuvering room. But if you pay to much for a gun in the beginning you are stuck between the; keep it until it increases or sell it and reinvest to generate a positive by multiple sales. It just depends on your philosophy, neither situation is wrong.
