It all depends on condition. The Italian Vetterli-Vitali 1870/87 in 10.35x47R(10.4x47R) is more collectable than the 1915 conversion to 6.5 carcano and is safer to shoot. The ammo is very scarce, but can be hand loaded. In vg condition $500+ would be a fair price. They do seem to becoming more popular these days and I've had mine for years. It really is a fine looking rifle.
You will need to provide a detailed description of ALL markings, caliber, barrel length, caliber, type of action, describe the stock, bayonet mount if any and how it is configured, sling swivels, if any, and location.
