Default Value of butt stock?

I have a non-collector-quality GH-16 for which I had a longer butt stock made (I'm tall and need/like 15 1/4" LOP). I mention that the GH isn't a collector gun (I intend to use it) and therefore I see less value in trying to keep the butt stock and fore end together. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the original except it yielded a 13 3/4" LOP when mounted on the gun. It's a #1 frame butt stock.

Is there a market for such butt stocks? And if so what's a reasonable price for one?

I'm honestly not fishing, but a gentleman has asked me for the butt stock if I choose to not keep it. If it's worth "x" then I'll probably keep it. If it's worth "XXX" then I will most probably let it go.

Here are a few photos of the butt stock.
