What is a very good tailgate worth?

A tailgate that's Not exactly fresh off the line perfect, but darn close. Probably only used a few times, then removed and stored.

What would something like that be worth?

Just like sell a truck, it depends where you're marketing the product to. The mid west it would be more than a desert area. It could go for $500. Check out the Ebay and craigslist, and offerup prices

$250 to $300 to the right buyer.

This is what I've got. It's not perfect, but it is in the top 1% for sure. It could be on a show truck.

Garret's may be the same 2 colors but doesn't have the tailgate finish panel nor the lower chrome molding.

I think I just got rich!! I have two mint tailgates, I have one tailgate with the woodgrain panel that I completely restored.
I guess my three gates all total would sell for like $3000.00 I'll hold onto them for now.

Holding onto them to get rich, sounds like an oxy...moron.

I've got a decor panel if you want to add it to the tailgate.

Paint scheme is a little different too. Same colors, different layout.
