Before my grandfather passed a few years ago, he gave me his old Crosman 150 Pellgun .22. It has a busted seal, but if I can replace that, how much money do you think I could get for it? It has no visible wear to it, and I also have a tin of Crosman wadcutters from the 60's or 70's.

Old Crosman pistols have a fair market, with just the gun tha thsoots, id expect maybe $100, with the box though, you could expect much more, it all depends on the buyer.
-
Depending on condition and which type, two piece barrel or one piece barrel, betwen 50 and 125. if you have the box, OM, and the pellets, maybe a little more. Needing to be resealed may sometimes make for a lower value, but depending on condition, it might not. the 150 is easy to reseal. the valve seal may be the only part that might have to have someone else do for you.

It's not worth what you'd expect... Why sell it anyway? I've got a 1969 Sheridan Blue Streak .20 that i'd never sell; and a 1980s Benjamin HB22.

A car that won't run brings only a junkyard price. Why would anyone expect differently of an airgun?
Oh I'm just painting a dark picture I readily admit but unless it is one of the few highly desirable collectables it does bring very little. When it will cost someone shipping from the seller, then to a repair facility and back to the buyer once more you're looking at $ 30-$40, Add $40-$60 for the repairs and an airgun that would be worth $100 in good operating condition barely HAS a value! A bit of logic soon sorts out thorny issues.
Better to keep it and get it repaired and be proud to own a family heirloom with which you were entrusted by your Grandfather that you can someday pass on in turn.
My opinion only of course. Tom

The rebuild kit is only 15 bucks so if you can do it your self it only cost 15 bucks to get it shooting. There very east to repair.
