Hi all! I was just curious as the what you think is a fair price for a 15 inch ripsaw catfish? I have never seen a large one fore sale before. Thank you for your time and input. It is appreciated!

15" is not large, lol. I'm not selling mine, but anywhere in the $50-$100 range sounds about right. There is also a thread where some guy gets a bunch of them for free and u-haul'sthem cross country.
I rarely see any ripsaws past the twelve inch mark but there was a prominent member by the name of MissMassPoly who had a near four footer but she has not posted in quite some time.
Agreed on the pricing.

Thanks guys! Are they readily available where you are? Up in western Canada I have only seen one or two for sale and a juvi in Vancouver was about $75.

yes, somewhat common near me. But, anything for sale over 2' is rare. They are known for not travelling well at large sizes and end up dying.
