Whay are you getting rid of him at a year of age?
This is going to be the first question that you are going to be asked by any perspective buyer. If he is a year and you are ditching him the first assumtion is going to be because you didn't train him as a puppy and now he has behavior and/or housebreaking issues that are going to be a real bugger to fix at this stage in the game.
All of these factors are going to weigh into the price that you can sell him at.
I take it that sense you are touting his registration status that he is not neutered? Have you considered having him neutered before you sell him? You can factor the price of the surgery into his cost and do the pet population a favor at the same time.

There is a such thing as too excessive even for a purebred champion line. You ought to cause with yourself earlier than making that commitment of paying. -there may be nothing mistaken with having a purebred from that line despite the fact that you don't plan on breeding or displaying ( assess if the breeders are producing pleasant healthful pups. ) -nothing incorrect with shopping around and touring unique kennels and getting backgrounds on the pups, breeders, and dam and sire, as good as costs. -be careful when picking a breeder, go browsing and research them. Monitor the breeder and ask questions. Some individuals have paid that for their puppies and more. If the cost seems unreasonable, do not accept it. Go someplace else.

well, it really depends on who you sell the dog to. i have a 5 year old lab that i have been offered a thousand for because of her temperament and obedience. but i also have a year old black lab, registered, and when i bought her i gave 200 at six weeks old. if your dog has good bloodlines, i would ask at least 150, if he has a spectacular temperament, you could try to sell him for 250 to 300, or maybe more if you sell him to a family instead of a breeder. families will always pay more for an animal they really want.

Just because your dog has AKC papers does not make him more valuable. Is he a show dog with a title? Is he a certified hunting dog? Have you had his eyes, hips, elbows, all certified free from defects?
Labs are one of the most common breeds here in the US. I think $50 would be fair and would at least offer some assurance that the people might take care of him.

The cost of your local animal shelter adoption fee less the cost of spaying if he's not spayed less the cost of shots if he's not up to date (you're probably already in the red if he's not up on vet care) and then add 50% of the cost of the crate (possibly a bit more if it's in good condition. Make sure he's going to a good home please. The animal shelters and responsible breeders screen their prospective owners for a reason.

probably about $150 to $200.

Not too much. People generally do not pay much for an adult dog. People want puppies. If he is altered and up to date on medical care, you can ask more.

First you should have him neutered, than ask no more than $200 for him.
