I picked up a used mid-90's 835 two weeks ago for $225 at a gun show.  I bought it because it had the old-school camo pattern and is mint.  Came with the original chokes and paperwork.  It doesn't look like it has ever been shot.  The vendor that I bought it from said that they had bought it a while ago.  Great gun, but as these guys alluded to - you might be better off just holding onto it.
