Default 1st Gen Value?

Hey guys, new to this forum but not internet forums. I've been shopping for a 1st Gen for a good while with a very specfic list of what I want and I think I'd found one but needed some input on the value. I think the seller has it valued a little too high. So I've decided to turn to a community that loves these trucks to see what you guys think.

1993 W250 5.9 12v 5 speed 4x4 with 203k miles.

Truck is very clean I would say a 8/10 body wise and interior is probably a 7/10 the has good history of professional maintence with new tires on the truck. Also has a 95 gallon fuel transfer tank in the bed of the truck.

He's asking 11K and I feel that's just too high from all my internet research. I orffered him 8.5K. Did I low ball this guy or is he right on the money?

Thanks in advance guys and hopefully soon I can have a 1st Gen of my own!

Bro i can tell you in texas that would be a steal at 11 i seen trucks bring more than that if its a true clean rig. i have had about 6 and i still have a couple and you might need to come up because that sounds like a good truck.

I've got mine for sale for 10k, not getting squat for offers. Market isn't the best right now.

I've only got it on cl. Didnt really know where else to put it. If you know anyone, send them my way.

Technically I'm in Joshua, I'm closer to Godley though. Near 2331 and Sky.

I haven't driven it much since the nv swap. I've been dealing with a pinched nerve in my shoulder that keeps killing off muscles in my shoulder, makes driving the big old beast a chore.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

I have about $10k total in my entire 1stgen fleet.

My 93 W250 was $4500. I never pay a lot for them.... the ugly ones with a few problems don't sell easy, so its a buyer's market that way.
