I'm surprised to hear about getting the blister. I've shot the P99 for quite a bit and have not encountered anything like that with it. Is there a rough spot on the frame? I used to have a Glock that had a seam line on the bottom of its triggerguard that would wear on my middle finger. Through use and modeler's sandpaper (the really fine stuff you'd use for figures) I was able to eliminate it.
If you're willing to wait for the right buyer, I think $450 would be the highest price you could expect from any used Walther P99 that was well maintained and had between 100-1000 rounds through it. I've been watching one on gunbroker not sell for the past month. I think if you put it on GunsAmerica at $425 (plus shipping) it should move quickly. -This only pertains to private transfers. If you're selling to a gun store, figure on not getting anything above $325.
When selling guns online, it's really about patience. No matter what I've listed there's always some jackal who emails me with an offer that is $50 to $100 below market price and acts like he's doing me the favor. I'm sure there are quite a few people who would be happy to take it off your hands for $350.
The holster is definitely a bonus, but a lot of people won't give you what it's worth when you're selling it with the gun. The bid typically only goes up by $10 to $20 unless you're talking about high-end leather (or antique leather). Even then, most buyers aren't savvy enough to know the difference between high-end leather and something that's middle of the road. I know your holster is not leather. You might want to consider selling the holster separately to maximize your return.
If you want to contact me in a PM, I may know someone who would be interested in the holster. (He has a Fobus that he hates.)
