Ethical or not?

Ok, overcharge him. Then....

Send him this post and ask him if he thinks it's ok

Ethics can be viewed as a balance beam. In this instance it doesn't seem to me that you have skewed the balance very far. It is also easy to lose money in the interest of ethics. Judgmentally speaking it seems to me that few say much if you only lose 'somewhat' on a deal. Make your decision, adjusted as you see fairly, and be comfortable with it. JMO.

If you like the guy and youre both doing each other a favor get your money back and maybe a $10 or $20 premium. you dont lose money and he gets a fair shake. he is your neighbor after all.

Sell it for $640 and be done with it. Do something good and help another pro 2a have a gun while you still get your money back!

No sense in making the friendship sour over $150. Tell him what you paid for the RIA then tell him how much you want for it and you'll see if he really doesn't care about the price.

If you ask what's ethical you don't have good ethics. Anyone that stands to make money will bend "ethical" decisions to their favor always.

If it was a good deal, you wouldn't be coming on here asking our permission.

God's (or the universe's), however you see it, law of compensation. You reap what you sow.

Yup.

Doing the right thing is doing the right thing.
The fact that you're looking for permission says to me you already know the answer.

Sell it for what you paid and be grateful you are able to upgrade without hassle.

I have never expected someone to pay me back for TAX and DROS when selling a firearm.

[Citadelgrad87]

Meh, if he says he doesn't care about price he can't get angry later. You just got the gun, it's value to you is above market value and you reflected that in the price.

Spoken like someone familiar with rationalizing immoral actions. Op doesn't want it, how can you say the value is above market.

[kygen]

be a nice guy and don't screw him over. you will feel better about it after

[mcmikeblues7]

Not ethical. The gun isn't worth that.
