That seems like a really, really good price but I haven't researched that gun specifically so I don't know what it normally goes for.
You have to decide if the price is right for you but I can say that my wife has one that was given to her by her father (retired LEO). I was a bit suspicious about the gun but must say it has been extremely surprising so far. Supremely accurate and completely reliable. Also very comfortable to shoot. I'm a fan.
The Bersa Thunder is a well made, economy priced handgun. I was curious because of all the positive comments you hear about them, so I bought a Bersa Thunder 22. I like it so well, I bought the .380. They are both very well made, very accurate, and a great value. I think hey could charge $400 new, and still sell well. $200 is a good deal. Buy it.

I would buy it in a heartbeat. That is a great deal on a Bersa. They are great guns, I own 3. My wife has carried a 380 Thunder for over 4 years now. In my opinion they are the most underrated gun on the market. A lot of gun for a little money.
Also to the poster above, dry firing a centerfire pistol doesn't mean it was abused. I have dry fired my handguns (not rimfire) 1000's of times and never had any issues. It is the best way to learn to shoot.

I bought one used a couple of years ago - paid $180 for it. I traded it in on another pistol and was allowed $180 on it towards the trade in. If it's in good shape,you've fired it and it functions well - I don't think the price is that awful. From what I'm hearing, with all of the guns going off the shelves in this "panic" - Bersas are hard to come by in some locations and are bringing top prices.
BTW - I loved my Bersa - ate anything I fed it. I now wish that I hadn't traded it in as it was a nice pistol. I'd have no problems in buying another one.

Snap that deal up
No brainer. If you don't jump on that you will be kicking yourself. Like:
when I passed on the Python in 1984, it was only a bit more than the Colt Agent I bought
when I didn't buy the two P226 police turn ins for $800 total
when I didn't buy the original Springer XD as the HS2000 for $300
when I didn't buy lotsa CZ's when they were $300 guns
when I didn't buy an AK when they were less than $400
Gonna go cry now

$200? Yeah, buy it.
"like new" implies used, which means you aren't the first owner. Bersa's warranty is to the first owner only.

Seeing how the wife just paid $320 for her NIB Thunder 380, I'd say $200 for a like new Thunder is a good deal.

If it's in good shape it sounds like a great deal! My wife and I both lover the .380 Thunder that we have. It has cycled everything I have fed it without a hiccup.

I just spent $700 bucks on a new gun last Friday and I am not looking to buy any guns for the rest of the year. If I were able to get a Bersa for $200 I'd be at my house right now without giving it a second thought.
Even if you didn't want the gun at $200 bucks you could at the very least turn a profit reselling it down he road.
