That might be the wrong approach.
I purchased a firearm in 1982 for $399.
I could purchase another of the same model number (but different internal design) right now for about $700.
Because of design features that were removed from the model I own sometime between its purchase and now, my gun is worth more.
I have actually been offered $3000 for it by a gun dealer.
It’s too bad I lost it last summer in a canoe accident.

It is amazing how many of us gun owners are simply unable to use a small boat or canoe without turning it over and dumping everything. I’ll bet it happened in very deep water with a soft mud bottom too.
