What’s it worth, bumpers?

[JH27N0B]

I have a mint condition OEM front bumper I replaced on my 71 Challenger a few years ago.
My car is fall production and this bumper had notches in it, which my understanding is weren't on them until late in 71 production, and then used through '72. Maybe someone can confirm as I would like to know for sure when this style was used.
I've listed it a few times in the past and am thinking of listing it again now, but now stating I'll deliver it to Moparty.
Prices are up, and a lot of things back ordered so I'm wondering what is a fair ask now?
Also, a guy came up to me at a cruise the other day and said he used to have a '74 Challenger rally 360, and at one point the rear bumper got banged up.  He went to a dealer and bought a new one, but the car was rusty so he sold it and never used it.  He asked me what it was worth, still wrapped in original packing!
I really don't know but if I see him again, I'd like to give him a value?
I said I'd be interested in seeing it, but he said it's at his place in Arizona and I'm in Illinois.

Interested in this. I replaced my originals with repops because it was cheaper than rechroming. I still have the originals, no dings or dents, just 40 year old chrome.

Truly mint? I would guess 50% more than a good repro?

The other factor is the cost of rechroming. It's getting to the point I wonder if restoring OEM bumpers is even affordable to most?
I found a decent 70-early 71 Challenger bumper core at a swap meet maybe around 4 years ago for around $75.
I gave it to a friend who does trim resto and sends chrome parts out to be restored, and it cost $425 if I recall, to get it restored. Then I installed it on my '71.
A couple years later, he said I was lucky I did it when I did.  The place he used, I think it was called Goodmark in MN, sold out, and the new owners doubled prices.
He started sending chrome to a place in Tennessee. He sent a 69 Skylark front bumper there and had some issues, and got frustrated enough by the problems he said he's done with bumpers.
At any rate, from what he told me a while back, it might cost $900 to rechrome a simple bumper now?
And that was a couple years ago, with inflation that might be over $1000?

I just bought a rechrome rear bumper (their core) for a 1970 Challenger from Tri City plating out of Tennessee.  Looks great.  $700, plus 70 to ship, no core back.    They quoted me $600 to rechrome my front (my core), which with shipping back and forth will be the same price.  6 weeks wait period.  Chip, who is their main client facing person, was very easy to deal with.

When I did google research on them they had mostly very favorable reviews but there was a small subset that said they had to send their bumper back to fix flaws, which they did but then your paying for shipping twice.

Tri City is where my friend started sending bumpers after his preferred vendor who I think was Goodmark doubled their rates after changing ownership.
I don't recall all the details of the problems he had with the Skylark bumper so don't take the fact there were issues with that one job to be a criticism of that company.
He had to ship it back, and then after redoing it there was still some issue.  My friend is a retiree who does this work for basically no profit for friends, and decided this situation was a last straw and made being the middleman for chrome work more trouble then it's worth.
Thanks for the reference on what a Challenger bumper rechrome costs now.  I found some AMD bumpers listed online from $369-450.  Therefore theoretically my bumper should be worth over $500.
I tried selling it the past years online and at a couple swap meets for $150, and no one even looked it it!
Probably won't be able to get anyone to look at it now either given my luck in selling stuff in recent times!
But I'll advertise it again offering delivery to Moparty and might have some luck for a change.
